The Observatory takes part in the 2025 Pacific Logistics Forum
Universidad del Pacífico researchers presented evidence on Chancay's role as a regional hub.
The Chancay megaport represents the largest logistics transformation of the Peruvian coast in decades. Its entry into operation reshapes the trade routes of the South Pacific while raising a set of challenges and opportunities for the State, businesses and coastal communities.
The analysis that follows draws on the available evidence and on the comparative experience of other port corridors in the region. We aim to offer a rigorous diagnosis, but also actionable proposals for the different levels of government.

The data show that the pace of demographic and economic growth in the district will comfortably exceed previous projections. Anticipating demand for basic services, housing and mobility will be decisive in avoiding preventable social costs.
Finally, we recall that environmental sustainability and competitiveness are not opposing goals. Modern port governance can and must integrate both horizons into a single development agenda.
