The unique differentiator of APM Terminals Callao is its multipurpose port nature, providing container and general cargo services, the latter including break bulk, solid bulk, rolling cargo, liquids, as well as any other type of cargo such as cruise ships. Additionally, we have technologically advanced equipment and personnel with international experience to meet these various types of cargo. What are your growth prospects in the short, medium and long term?
The growth forecast for the following years is good and aligned with the growth of the Peruvian Gross Domestic Product four percent , and with international markets where we export and import products, reason for which an increase is expected in both, container and general cargo volumes. Technology in the port sector is key. How does your terminal optimize resources?
Technology in the port sector, as in all sectors, is a challenge today. We ask ourselves every day how to adapt to new technologies, processes and concepts that revolutionize the design and development of ports in terms of productivity, sustainability, with the sole purpose of meeting the demands of our customers.
In that sense, APM Terminals aims to automate its processes globally. At APM Terminals Callao , we are moving forward in terms of modernization; we aim to, in the 24 years we have left in our concession, turn the Port of Callao into a world-class operation.
Since , APM Terminals is in charge of the modernization project of the terminal, guaranteeing the necessary infrastructure and equipment that allows to increase operational efficiency and its standards to an international level. In this way, the number plate data and container number are recorded quickly and accurately.
On the other hand, we have signed an agreement with the National Superintendence of Customs and Tax Administration, so that the administrative procedures are virtual allowing to improve processes, have a greater planning, greater efficiency and speed in the delivery of containers. Step by step we are moving forward; in the next few years we should start to evaluate how to automate horizontal transportation in each container yard.
In your opinion, what are the biggest challenges facing the maritime sector? We are experiencing changes in both, the port and in any other business sector related to the disruptive process of digitalization, which has increased access and opportunities, has increased complexity, and—above all—has created an exponential change in the perception of urgency for everything short term. We are seeing a transformation in which the consumer seeks to have accessibility, connection, immediacy, and in that sense, this is where our focus is.
Likewise, we are experiencing changes in infrastructure, modernization of facilities, new commercial routes, and economies of scale. This transformation will take us from the infrastructure manager to the service manager in an integrated manner. Today, we see how warehouses, terminals, railroads, cold chains, customs services, mooring and tugboats are efficiently integrated for sea and for land, with the customer at the center.
At APM Terminals, our clients are at the heart of our strategy, so we always think about getting ahead of their needs, integrating their logistics chain and adding value to their initial proposal. I could not define which one is my favorite vessel, as there are a variety of types and models with a range of different features; they are all really impressive. But what I can highlight is that I have been lucky enough to live and see the transformation of mega ships.
We are currently living this process in which the ships are adapting to the new needs of the market.
In Algeciras, I had the opportunity to lead the modernization project to adapt the terminal so that it could receive vessels such as the Triple E, considered one of the largest in the world. This has been rewarding, in addition to being at the forefront of this transformation, being able to have them in front of me represents a great experience.
