Welcome to Ship2Brazil

While elsewhere in the world ports are suffering from less trade and cargo, most Brazilian ports are booming! Exports of agribulk, minerals and other commodities are rising exponentially. This surge in trade provides opportuntiies for both Brazilian and foreign businesses.

But there is more! Privatization of ports is being discussed and the promotion of short sea trade (cabotage) along Brazil's immense coastline is on the government's agenda, offering huge opportunities for maritime transportation.

In view of these opportunities and in order to reach out to our friends in Brazil, Atlantico Business Development has taken the initiative to promote Brazilian ports and shipping in a series of international webinars. The first edition will run on September 10th, 2020, from 15.00-16.00 hrs CET, broadcasting live from the World Trade Center in Rotterdam.

During the first edition of Ship2Brazil we will focus on three different ports in various regions of Brazil: the Port and Industrial Complex of Pecém in the Northeast, the Port of Açu in the Southeast and Santos Port Authority further south.



Pecém is a public port and industrial complex near the northeastern hub of Fortaleza (Ceará state), cooperating strongly with the Port of Rotterdam.



The Port of Açu (in Rio de Janeiro state) on the other hand was built only a few years ago and has strong links with the Port of Antwerp.



Santos Port Authority, situated in the economic powerhouse of São Paulo state, is of course the largest port in Brazil and Latin America, handling more than 110 million tons of cargo in 2019.

This first edition of Ship2Brazil was made possible thanks to sponsoring by the Port and Industrial Complex of Pecém, the Port of Açu, Green Award Foundation, Rabb Carvalho Law and Rotterdam Partners.

We are also grateful for the support of Santos Port Authority, Unimar - Agenciamentos Marítimos and World Trade Center Rotterdam.

Program

During Ship2Brazil the speakers from the ports of Pecém, Açu and Santos will highlight the latest developments in their respective ports in these days: measures taken, new initiatives, projecs, investments, innovation, planning, etc. Of course the impact of low oil prices and Covid19 on shipping will also be highlighted.

Besides sharing the latest statistics and other news, the speakers will also share their views on the upcoming incentives to cabotage and short sea shipping in Brazil as well as their take on privatization plans. Finally, the development of Brazilian trade as well as geopolitical issues will be dealt with during the discussions.
