This new service includes two new important elements: Security,  the cargo is unloaded right at the customers warehouse were the seal is broken  for inspection right in front of him and our truck’s driver and also the delivery is made at  the consignee’s  facility instead of him having to go to pick it up at the customs  warehouse.

We are aware that today numerous NVOCC and Freight Forwarders in the world are looking for alternatives to transship their cargo with destination  to South America, Central America, the Caribbean and other points of interest by using the route of Panama as transshipment center for their exports.

 For this reason our company has strategically located its operations in the new exclusive transshipment center "COLON CARGO CENTER" established to exclusively bring our customers the best possible logistics service.

 The Cargo and Transshipment center in the Colon Free Zone is a perfect tool for national and foreign operators looking for an ideal, secure and professional infrastructure in Panama.

 This structure gives Colon a real image as a center for efficient cargo handling where global standards are met and as time goes by more freight forwarders and NVOCC’S in the world will become interested in establishing their transshipment centers in our Colon Free Zone.

Some of the reasons for this being:

  1. International Image:

    Some very sounding transshipment centers in the world have lost opportunities of further developments because of the disparity, instability and low ratings from many of the companies that use the centers. An example would be the Miami Center which even thought they made the proper structures available to the customers; their volumes were reduced to a minimum due to the fact that they were not able to satisfy the customer needs. This has given Panama an insured factor that it’s handling of these centers accommodates easily to the customer’s needs and provides more answers to what they are looking for. Actually Panama is in an ascendant phase of its international maritime image for various reasons such as, the efficiency of its private container ports, the increase of shipping lines having a presence here, and the now proved efficiency in the handling of the Panama Canal by Panamanians.

2.The Panamanian Opportunity:

Because of the positive factors previously mentioned, the development of regional exchanges in the frame of Globalization, the operating impopularity of the strong security measures in the USA ports, Panama is in its best moment to attract increasing amounts of consolidated transshipping cargo.  This gives us a clear view as to why we should keep the best image in a world compromised to globalize criterions, the competition and service standards required globally would turn in a impossible mission the need to recover from a damaged image.

The financial trust and operating capacity of these two factors allow us to offer an integrated logistic service worldwide
