The South Container Terminal, operated by DP World, is consolidating its position as the engine of Peruvian foreign trade thanks to its recent expansion and high operational efficiency.
LIMA, May 13, 2026 – Peru's National Port System is preparing for a historic milestone. The National Port Authority (APN) reported that the South Pier of the Port of Callao is projected to handle over 2 million TEUs (twenty-foot equivalent units) by the end of the current year, reaffirming its position as the main logistics hub in the region.
The projected growth is no coincidence. Following investments in infrastructure and equipment, the terminal currently boasts cutting-edge technological deployment:
This progress is the result of the synergy between private investment and public management. The APN, an entity attached to the Ministry of Transport and Communications (MTC), has played a crucial role in supervising these investments, focusing on the integration of state-of-the-art technology.
«These projections consolidate Peru as a strategic player in international maritime trade, strengthening our competitiveness against other ports on the Pacific coast,» sector sources noted.
