YILPORT QUETZAL

YILPORT Quetzal is located 102 kilometers from Guatemala City. It is the largest port located on the Pacific coastline, serving vessels that bring various types of cargo. YILPORT’s presence in Puerto Quetzal started by the Operadora Logistica Guatemala (OLG) Company, formerly set up in partnership with FBM Group.

YILPORT Quetzal operations started after OLG was awarded the contract to provide handling services in the Empresa Portuaria Quetzal (EPQ) quays with 4 Mobile Harbor Cranes for container, break bulk and bulk cargo. In line with the tender terms with the Quetzal Port Authority, YILPORT extended its presence at the terminal with additional equipment, and took over operations with the modernization of the terminal to maximize the privileged geographical position Quetzal in Central America.

YILPORT Quetzal has a privileged geographical position in the Central American Region as it is situated at an equidistant point to the Panama Canal and the large Mexican ports in the Pacific that handle various types of cargo.

While the main commodity handled in the port is dry cargo (wheat, soy, corn), fresh fruit and sugar exports in containers also hold an important place in product variety. YILPORT Quetzal provides service with its 5 mobile harbour cranes. Thanks to current and upcoming investments, Puerto Quetzal expects to enhance its service quality and reach more and more customers on the Pacific coastline.
