Peru and Guatemala promote a key alliance to boost port development
With the aim of raising competitiveness standards in the region, the National Port Authority (APN), an entity attached to the Ministry of Transport and Communications (MTC), and the National Port Commission of the Republic of Guatemala held a strategic meeting to consolidate a bilateral cooperation agenda.
The meeting enabled the exchange of critical experiences and the identification of best practices in port management. This synergy will soon materialize through the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding, which will establish a roadmap focused on operational efficiency and adaptation to the new demands of global maritime trade.
The strategic alliance will prioritize seven key pillars for the development of both port systems: port governance, energy transition and decarbonization, waste management and circular economy, digital transformation and innovation, as well as port operations and services, security and protection, and port-city integration, among other areas of common interest.
Through this initiative, the APN reaffirms its regional leadership and its commitment to the continuous improvement of the National Port System. By aligning efforts with strategic partners such as Guatemala, Peru seeks to ensure international quality standards that enhance foreign trade and directly contribute to the country’s economic growth.
