This will be prioritized in the South American Infrastructure and Planning Council (COSIPLAN) between the Federative Republic of Brazil, the Republic of Paraguay, the Argentine Republic and the Republic of Chile in the Capricorn Axis of Integration and Development.
According to the statements of the Minister of Public Works and Communications, Ing. Rodolfo Segovia, this project will redefine the rules of global logistics. The economic impact for Paraguay, mainly for the Chaco, will allow the country to reach levels of development and growth like never before.
Currently, to get production destined for Asia, you must navigate to the Panama Canal with the operating cost that this implies; but now, with the Bioceánica you will save 2 weeks of travel. In terms of navigability, 6 days are saved to reach the most demanding markets in the world (Asia) starting from the deep-water ports on the Pacific Ocean (Chile).
Likewise, the lower expense in the transfer of cargo means a saving of between USD 800 to USD 1,000 for each container.
According to the MOPC, with the Bioceánica more opportunities are opened for Paraguay, from new alliances, new markets, investments, knowledge and technology transfer, passing through new production chains, storage areas, free zones, among others.
