La competitividad potencial del puerto de Cartagena: una oportunidad para el comercio exterior

The port of Cartagena de Indias demonstrates significant potential competitiveness for foreign trade, particularly through its multimodal transport system. This advantage is driven by cost efficiencies and strategic positioning that enhance the movement of containerized goods. The study employs a reflexive analysis approach, integrating direct observation, statistical data from the Port Society and Republic Bank, and insights from academic literature. It builds on prior research, including a degree-level analysis conducted at the Technological University of Bolívar, to identify critical points in fluvial transport that could further optimize logistics. By leveraging these findings, the port emerges as a promising hub for international commerce, with implications for regional trade dynamics.
