Ceará Government Begins Works on the Export Processing Zone and Continues Expansion of the Pecém Port

The Ceará government has initiated the expansion works of the Export Processing Zone (EPZ) at the Pecém Port. With investments of around R$ 30 million, sector 2 (as it is designated) will occupy an area of 240 hectares. The delivery forecast for the first module is until February 2021.

According to the president of EPZ Ceará, Mário Lima Júnior, the area can host granite processing industries, mining companies, and maquiladoras.

“In this first phase, we have granite processing industries, mining companies that produce special ores, such as manganese, and there are the maquiladora industries, which are assemblers that receive imported components, assemble, and export the final product. There are consultations, but nothing is formalized yet,” says Lima Júnior.

Currently, three companies operate in the Complex: Pecém Steel Company (CSP), White Martins, and Phoenix Pecém. In 2019, the trio handled over 12 million tons of cargo.

The Pecém Port today is a joint venture formed by the Ceará Government (70%) and the Port of Rotterdam (30%). The area includes an industrial zone, the Pecém Port, and EPZ Ceará. According to Camilo, “the idea is to make the Pecém Port a more modern port, capable and agile in loading and unloading, because that is very important – the efficiency in the service it provides in operating ships that arrive from all over the world.”
