Concession Optimization & Transition Strategy (2026–2034)

Challenge

Sociedad Portuaria Regional de Buenaventura S.A. (SPRBUN) operates the multipurpose terminal in the Bay of Buenaventura — a versatile gateway handling containers, general cargo, solid and liquid bulk, and RO-RO. To maximize value across the remainder of its concession (2026–2034), SPRBUN set a clear strategic priority for 2026: a Concession Optimization & Transition Strategy designed to unlock efficiency, growth, and long-term competitiveness. The plan redesigns the port layout across all commodities and gates for higher-throughput operations, launches a new solid bulk business backed by a targeted market-entry strategy, and strengthens the container terminal through operational-excellence initiatives. Looking ahead, SPRBUN is also evaluating its post-2034 options — from a structured exit to continued investment — to keep every decision grounded in a clear, value-driven roadmap.

Tasks Performed

• Clarified crane-scrapping ownership (4 STS, 12 RTG)
• Developed land outside the concession area
• Reduced cargo dwell times and removed non-operational storage
• Aligned RO-RO and general cargo areas with shipment size
• Designed high-and-heavy RO-RO storage and bulk fertilizer warehouse and redesigned general cargo and break-bulk warehouses for higher density

Benefit

SPRBUN gained clear, actionable strategies for business and terminal development through 2026–2034 and beyond — unlocking greater storage capacity across all cargo types and a future-ready terminal.
