APM Terminals delivers Suape terminal, bringing a new gateway to Northeast Brazil

APM Terminals has delivered its new container terminal at the Port of Suape in Pernambuco, Northeast Brazil, representing an investment of more than USD 350 million. The facility will be the first fully electrified in Latin America and is designed to increase the Suape Port Complex's container handling capacity by 55%, initially handling up to 400,000 TEUs per year. According to a study by A&M Infra, Navarro Prado Advogados and APM Terminals, the terminal has potential to drive up to R$4.8 billion in additional exports, approximately R$4.9 billion in GDP, and create more than 43,000 jobs across foreign trade-related value chains.
