Since early February 2026, Puerto Antioquia began its regular operation as a new maritime terminal in the Gulf of Urabá, marking a milestone for Colombian foreign trade and regional logistics competitiveness. This port, with modern and ambitious infrastructure, offers new alternatives for exporters and importers looking to reduce time, costs, and complexity in their logistics routes.

Start of Operations with Real Results

In just two weeks of regular operation, the port has already served 10 container ships, with both import and export cargo, including empty containers and loaded merchandise. This fact shows that the infrastructure is in real operation and not just a projection.

The general manager, Alejandro Costa Posada, said that the terminal has managed operations at rates close to 40 moves per hour — the port productivity metric — with ships that have had up to 600 moves per call. This level of efficiency in such a short time reflects an accelerated learning curve with prospects for further increase.

Real Cargo Diversification and Operating Companies

Beyond the traditional banana movement that characterizes the region, companies like Grupo Familia have already made exports, and companies like Corona and Italcol are evaluating or preparing operations from this terminal. Additionally, global shipping lines such as Maersk, CMA CGM, and MSC have already signed contracts to operate regular services through this port.
This means that both agricultural products (avocado, coffee, lemon, pineapple, flowers) and bulk and general cargo are available today to be moved from Urabá with direct access to international trade.

Capacity, Strategic Location, and Logistics Impact

The port was designed with a capacity of up to seven million tons per year, far exceeding the region’s base cargo volume before its opening. This multi-sector infrastructure includes space for dry and refrigerated containers, bulk, ro-ro, and general cargo.
Its location in Turbo places it approximately 100 kilometers closer to the Caribbean compared to traditional terminals, representing concrete advantages in distance and cost reduction for companies operating from the country’s interior to international markets.

More space, better circulation, lower costs… turn it into a competitive advantage with our experts.

What Does This Mean for Your Company?

The start of operations at Puerto Antioquia is not just an infrastructure milestone: it is a tangible opportunity for Colombian companies that:

  • need to speed up their imports or exports,
  • want to diversify their maritime routes, or
  • seek to improve their global logistics competitiveness.

This new logistics corridor is active, operational, and supported by top-tier shipping lines.
