This multi-use port terminal, which will expand the capacity of the port of Santos by 10%, will cost R$ 181 million in infrastructure alone. Empresa Brasileira de Terminais Portuários was created in 1998 to build and operate Brazil's largest private-sector multiple-use port terminal, equipped with capacity to handle all customs regimes and operate handling, storage and transport connections for all types of import and export consignments and transactions.

The new port is structured to operate in an area of 1 million m², containing a port terminal and warehousing, handling and distribution facilities for a wide range of merchandise, including vehicles, general cargo, and solid and liquid bulk commodities.

With the maritime, highway and railroad access available to Santos, EMBRAPORT will be able to operate as a multi-modal hub, offering its clients the best available levels of productivity, efficiency and costs, due to the high degree of automation installed in all its systems - from handling of cargo to the administrative, management and control functions.

The EMBRAPORT project has been through public hearings, and is now in the process of acquiring functional licensing and authorization from the Brazilian national environmental authority (Ibama*), the National Heritage Office (SPU) and the National Waterways Transport Agency (ANTAQ).
