TPA – Alcântara Port Terminal is a multimodal private port that will offer a complete logistical modal (road, rail and waterway), enabling greater efficiency in transport costs, lowering the cost of sea freight due to the greater capacity of ships and all the advantages inherent to private port operation.

TPA – Alcântara Port Terminal is a project designed as a private condominium, with 12 million m2 available, with no space limitations for future expansions (growth can be modulated according to demand).

The basic infrastructure, which is the responsibility of GPM – Grão-Pará Maranhão, will allow modeling in specialized terminals with independent corporate organizations in order to meet the demand for ore, agribusiness, fertilizers, fuels, natural gas and general cargo.
