Iquique Terminal Internacional (ITI), operated by Hanseatic Global Terminals, closed 2025 with an all-time cargo transfer record, exceeding 3.3 million metric tons and representing 33% growth over the previous year. This milestone reaffirms ITI’s position as one of the leading multipurpose terminals for the Andean market.
ITI’s general manager, Rodrigo Pommiez, commented, “This achievement reflects our employees’ commitment, our customers’ trust and our coordinated work with the entire logistics chain. We have faced significant challenges and lessons. However, through planning and collaboration we have achieved historic figures that motivate us to continue growing.”
This result was possible thanks to two recently added services, Chancay Express and Alpaca; the sustained increase in export cargo, better coordination along the logistics chain and new equipment at the terminal (eight reach stackers and two mobile harbour cranes), factors that enabled us to optimize operations and respond to market needs.
By volume, ITI exceeded 424 thousand TEUs, which is 21% higher than projected for the year.
Looking ahead to 2026, ITI will focus on boosting operational efficiency, improving productivity and service quality, strengthening safety, integrating new technologies and developing the Bolivian market, while maintaining its commitment to sustainability and excellence. “Continuous improvement in productivity and efficiency is vital to meeting our customers’ needs and staying competitive in the port industry. This will be one of our main focuses this year,” the executive emphasized.
