en.Wedoany.com Reported - Peru's Minister of Foreign Trade and Tourism, José Reyes Llanos, held a working meeting with Marco Hernández, General Manager of DP World Callao, to discuss the main challenges and opportunities for strengthening the country's port infrastructure and logistics competitiveness.

The meeting took place at the headquarters of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism (Mincetur). During the talks, the minister noted that as the operator of the South Pier (Muelle Sur) at the Port of Callao, DP World plays a strategic role in enhancing the port's operational capacity and consolidating Peru's position as a regional logistics hub.

Reyes stated that the current international and geopolitical landscape requires ports to further improve in terms of efficiency, resilience, and digitalization to adapt to the new dynamics of global trade. He emphasized that the expansion of port infrastructure must keep pace with the growth of foreign trade and the development of emerging regional logistics chains, thereby ensuring long-term capacity, efficiency, and competitiveness.

The meeting also pointed out that the improvement of port competitiveness equally depends on the efficiency of logistics corridors and traffic flow management. To this end, participants evaluated several proposals, including optimizing the appointment system, improving port access scheduling, reducing congestion, and lowering additional costs affecting transport operators in Callao.

Also attending the meeting were Deputy Minister of Foreign Trade Cesar Llona, Luis Mesías, Head of the Advisory Office of the Minister of Foreign Trade and Tourism, and several executives from DP World.
