Specific shipping lines giving priority to Peru's banana industry rather than Ecuadors

Pedro Angel

Published Apr 27, 2021

Some shipping lines carrying banana containers prefer to offer their sea freight spaces to Europe from Paita, Peru rather than ports in Ecuador, leaving the Ecuadorian banana traders with fewer shipping routes. This occurs because some sea shipping firms can get higher margins from their Peru-Europe service route than going to Ecuador.
