To discuss its logistics development and opportunities for cooperation, Puerto Antofagasta welcomed the Ambassador of New Zealand to Chile, Daniela Rigoli, together with representatives of the trade agency New Zealand Trade and Enterprise (NZTE).
The meeting was led by CEO Carlos Escobar Olguín and focused on the Port’s role in foreign trade. The parties also discussed continuing the dialogue and exploring links with national and international companies for the next stages of the Port’s projects and other regional initiatives.
“The Port’s work is essential to fuelling the economy, industry and every opportunity, and we are very grateful,” said the Ambassador. She also highlighted the “potential to collaborate with New Zealand.”
On infrastructure, the Master Plan projects were presented: the Breakwater extension, the La Negra Logistics Development Zone, and the modernisation of the Portezuelo Pre-Port. These initiatives aim to improve the continuity of maritime operations and expand support, storage and service areas for businesses.
The visit ended with a tour of the Multi-Operator Terminal, where the delegation saw port operations and the progress of the Breakwater works.
