The world s first certified carbon neutral container is loaded in Ecuador
On December 12, Contecon Guayaquil SA (CGSA), the private administrator of the Liberator Simón Bolívar Maritime Port, loaded the world s first container with carbon-neutral certified land and port logistics. The merchandise, belonging to Tropical Fruit, was transported by sea by MSC to France, where it will be marketed by the Société Iternationale d Importation (SIIM).
In addition, Contecon has been accredited as the first terminal in the American continent to comply with the ISO 14064 standard in its operations. This was achieved thanks to the trust of the country s exporting companies, who choose Contecon Guayaquil for their operations, our allies, governing entities, collaborators, managers, and -above all- thanks to our private concessionaire s incessant bet on investing in infrastructure that not only leads to economic and port growth but is also friendly to the environment, stated Jose Antonio Co
