The New Container Terminal of Maersk in the State of Pernambuco Promises to Generate More Than 10 Thousand New Jobs.

On this Thursday (1), the Port of Suape officially announced the development of a new container terminal by APM Terminals, which belongs to the Maersk group. The sale was approved by the Justice of Ipojuca in August. At an event, the President of Suape, Roberto Gusmão, stated that Pernambuco will be Maersk’s distribution hub in the Northeast and this initiative aims to generate thousands of new jobs.

According to Gusmão, this is a strengthening of the world’s largest shipping company, which will bring new international routes to the state in Asia and Europe. In addition to the new container terminal, the Port also announced a series of deliveries and leases that it has been undertaking.

In total, R$ 37 billion will be invested in the area, and according to Gusmão, the ventures will create around 9,800 direct and indirect jobs.

According to Paulo Câmara, he is sure that the state is advancing and will have a first-world, efficient logistics operation that will reduce costs and provide what is also important for Pernambuco, which is to show the potential for making investments in the region, in addition to generating thousands of new job opportunities.

The intention is to give Maersk all the conditions to start the works for the container terminal by 2024/2025, so that the terminal, which will create many jobs, can begin its operations in 2026. Leonardo Levy, director of Maersk in the Americas, also delivered a speech and thanked the support from the state of Pernambuco, the governor, and the local community.

Over a period of two years, there were various discussions until a positive project for all was reached. This project was essential, but it will continue to be important for the container terminal to come to fruition.
