The Investments, Marking the Highest Transfer Value in 12 Years, Drive Growth and Modernization of the Naval and Port Industry

In 2024, the Brazilian naval and port sector achieved a historic milestone with investments totaling R$ 30.8 billion, the highest value recorded in over a decade. This amount was allocated to over 430 new projects ranging from vessel construction to shipyard expansion and port infrastructure modernization, according to Notícia Brasil.

Merchant Marine Fund Boosts Sector

The Ministry of Ports and Airports attributed the year’s success to the Merchant Marine Fund (FMM), which was crucial for the approval of projects across the country. In total, R$ 45 billion was prioritized by the government for 1,300 projects, reflecting a 70% increase in the number of approved initiatives in the last two years compared to the period from 2019 to 2022.

Expansion of the Naval Industry with Record Investment

The investments in expanding the naval industry reached R$ 5.33 billion from January to December 2024, the highest value in the last 12 years. This funding was allocated to 548 new works, primarily focused on inland navigation (415), maritime support (94), port support (37), and cabotage (2). Adding the resources from 2023, the current government allocated R$ 6.36 billion to new enterprises, a significant increase of 326% compared to the previous administration.
