en.Wedoany.com Reported - The Ministry of Transport and Communications of Peru (MTC), through the National Port Authority (APN), has announced plans to build a logistics corridor connecting the Chancay Multipurpose Port Terminal (Terminal Portuario Multipropósito de Chancay) with the Jorge Chávez International Airport in Callao (Aeropuerto Internacional Jorge Chávez), with an estimated investment of $20 million.

Lima Airport Partners stated that this connection follows a "sea-land-air" intermodal transport model: cargo arrives at the Chancay port, is transported by land to the airport, and then distributed via air freight to destinations across South America. As part of the project, a 6,885-square-meter warehousing center will be built, directly linked to airport operations to support cargo transshipment within the logistics corridor. Currently, Jorge Chávez International Airport handles approximately 90% of Peru's air freight volume.

The planning of this logistics corridor aligns with Peru's strategic direction to become a regional logistics hub. As South America's first smart port, the Chancay port has significantly reduced maritime shipping times from South America to Asia since its opening in November 2024. This land-air connection project will further integrate maritime and air freight resources, forming a complete route from Asia through Peru to other South American countries. Previously, COSCO Shipping had secured a 15-year operating right for the apron warehouse project at Lima International Airport, providing infrastructure support for the sea-air intermodal model of this logistics corridor.
