Designed globally, delivered locally for Latin America

Serving Latin America comes with its challenges: long distances, infrastructure gaps, and complex cross-border flows that impact speed, costs, and visibility. Maersk Contract Logistics is designed to simplify this, via a strategic regional network of 12 warehouses, offering almost 200,000 sq. m of combined capacity. This enables customers to position inventory closer to demand, streamline distribution, and optimise multi-country operations.

A key hub within this network is the Panama Pacifico warehouse. Located in a Special Economic Zone, it offers tax and customs benefits such as duty exemptions, flexible storage conditions, and simplified cross-border handling – alongside strong multimodal connectivity. Supported by local expertise, end-to-end visibility, and global integration, we help your operations scale with more agility, control, and resilience across Latin America.
