YILPORT Liscont Terminal, located in the Port of Lisbon, handled 23,020 TEUs this April, representing a 35 per cent increase compared to the same month in 2024.
The growth from March to April 2025 was even more pronounced, with a 42 per cent rise from 16,212 TEUs to 23,020 TEUs.
In the first four months of 2025, YILPORT Liscont processed a total of 75,493 TEUs, reflecting an increase of nearly 25 per cent when compared with the same period of the previous year. Of this total volume, exports accounted for 52 per cent, while imports represented 48 per cent.
This positive performance is the result of a combination of structural and operational factors, driven by a significant investment in infrastructure. This investment has equipped the terminal with modern handling equipment and advanced technology.
The terminal now benefits from a network of nine regular services with direct connections to major international hubs, as well as strategic markets in South America, Africa, and the Mediterranean.
To keep pace with its growth and strengthen its operational capacity, YILPORT Liscont is currently undergoing an expansion phase. Ongoing work includes the demolition of old buildings to significantly increase cargo storage and management capacity.
In parallel, a new operations building is under construction. The new infrastructure will be in an area previously used as a heavy vehicle parking lot, which is being redeveloped to ensure improved organisation, functionality, and future capacity.
The completion of this expansion project is scheduled for 2026.
Last summer, Yilport Latam announced the inauguration of Container Berth 6 and a new container yard in Puerto Bolívar, Ecuador.
