Good climate for logistics: The Platetrade Group opens its offices in Paraguay

Platetrade Group, through its subsidiary Platemaritime, decided to settle in Paraguay motivated by the economic stability and constant development of the country and the climate of business opportunities.

“We seek to consolidate a real presence by offering our door-to-door transportation services for general cargo and project cargo as well as specialized services in land transportation for ordered cargo,” explained Sebastián Zalaya, CEO of the Platetrade Group, about the firm's objectives.

The executive added that they hope to establish long-term relationships with the country's main exporters and importers and construction and EPC companies. “We are in the exploration and decision stage about investing in assets linked to logistics, excluding the river shipping market in which we believe there are already many players,” he noted.

Within the framework of this project, it is worth highlighting the strategic alliance between Platemaritime and the Korean group CJ-ICM. “This is key for the development of logistics since the group has its own offices in 44 countries and assets such as ports and warehouses with specialized trucks in the project,” highlighted Fabián Di Stefano, CEO of Platemaritime, representative of the Korean company.

The decision of how many employees they will hire in the country will be agreed between Platetrade Group and the CJ-ICM group. “We will start with a medium staff and then we will measure business development and evaluate hiring, including mobilizing employees from other offices around the world,” added Zalaya.

About Platetrade Group Platetrade Group has 28 years of experience in the market, with two offices in Buenos Aires and branches in Uruguay, Paraguay and Bolivia. Over the years, we have mainly focused on the transportation of bulk goods, bagged goods, steel and project cargo. We have recently acquired Fluvialmar, an Argentine shipowner, with Argentine flag vessels, which allows us to provide transportation between Argentine ports, since the vessels are cabotage vessels with the Argentine flag. We are capable of providing door-to-door services. We are also maritime agents in Argentina and Uruguay. This division allows us to have good costs in PDAs and stevedores, helping not only the owners but the entire logistics chain to obtain better results in the entire operation. We operate successfully worldwide with very large clients such as Techint Group, Exiros, Ternium, Tenaris, Impsa, Arcelormittal, Votorantim, among others. We are also members of BIMCO (Baltic and International Maritime Council) and are also certified by Bureau Veritas with ISO9001.
