Argentina’s Atlantic ports paralysed as lorry drivers strike deepens
The indefinite strike action called by independent truckers earlier this week has paralysed activity at the ports of Bahia Blanca and Necochea, cutting off supply completely to two key ports on Argentina’s Atlantic coast, data from a leading logistics firm shows.
The ports are major infrastructure for the country’s bulk agriculture exports, while strike action is also said to be affecting grain loadings at several ports located in the Up River hub at Rosario.
Logistics firm Williams Entregas reported that no grain lorries had arrived into Bahia Blanca or Necochea on either Thursday or Friday, while just 544 lorries had arrived to the Rosario region on Thursday, rising to 1,143 lorries on Friday.
