In an interview granted to Jornal Portuário, today on the Integration 5.0 Program, commercial director Helena presented the new investments of the Port of Leixões.
The Portuguese port announced a strategic plan of 1 billion euros in investments over the next 10 years, focusing on expanding container infrastructure.
The project envisions expanding current capacity from 700,000 to 1.4 million TEUs, practically doubling cargo handling.
According to the executive, the measure is directly linked to the growth potential in commercial relations between Brazil, Mercosur, and the European Union.
Sectors such as textiles, plastics, and manufactured goods are expected to lead this new phase of exports.
Portugal's presence at Intermodal 2026 underscores the importance of Brazil as a strategic commercial partner.
