The Minister of Economy and Finance, Alex Contreras, believes that the new port of Chancay has the potential to become an export center for Peru, Brazil, Ecuador, and Chile, with routes to China. He sees it as an opportunity to reduce transportation and import costs, making Peruvian products more competitive. Contreras also highlighted the potential for the port to create employment opportunities and promote productive diversification, particularly in sectors like forestry, agriculture, and textiles.
