Shareholders of the Port of Rotterdam and the Ministry of Finance Approved Participation in the Port of Pecém, a Rapidly Growing Port in Northeast Brazil.

The participation involves an investment of around €75 million and, in addition to holding 30% of the shares, the Port of Rotterdam Authority will have joint control over strategic decision-making and positions on the Executive Board, Supervisory Board, and management level. The Port of Rotterdam and the State of Ceará are expected to sign the decision next month, and the following months will be used to further finalize the participation.

Allard Castelein, CEO of the Port of Rotterdam Authority is optimistic: “Our participation in the Brazilian port of Pecém is promising for both. We have been working with the Pecém consultancy for several years. This investment will further intensify the partnership. We will be working with the state of Ceará to ensure that Pecém becomes the future logistics and commercial center of Northeast Brazil.

Opportunities for the Business Community of Rotterdam and Netherlands Inc.

By engaging in the international maritime landscape, the Port of Rotterdam Authority is creating economic and social value for Netherlands Inc. and the Rotterdam-Rijnmond region. The Port of Rotterdam Authority does this by offering opportunities for Dutch companies abroad, learning from international “best practices,” maintaining the reputation of the Rotterdam maritime cluster at a high level, and obtaining financial returns from its international activities. The Port Authority accomplishes this in various roles: as a consultant, supplier, port manager, and investor.

Pecém as a Hub for Northeast Brazil:

Brazil offers significant potential, partly due to raw materials and partly as Brazil is expected to become a growing market in the coming decades. In addition to the participation in Pecém, the Port of Rotterdam Authority is also involved in Port Central, Porto Verde, and further development in the State of Espírito Santo.

Pecém is a rapidly growing port. Its total output in 2017 was 16 million tons, and the port has experienced an average annual growth of 22% over the last 10 years. Economic and national growth, along with market demand, allows Pecém to continue to develop towards an output of 45 million tons by 2030. (dockets, land, etc.) are already available.

The Port of Pecém has the potential and ambition to become an industrial and logistics hub for Northeast Brazil, and it often requires conducting international operations and investing in Europe.
