The Panama Canal, approximately 80km long, joins the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, and serves as the crossroad between East/West and North/South Americas. With the boom in China-US trade and strong container volumes in Latin America, the Panama Canal has grown in strategic importance in providing a Far East-US East Coast all-water service and as a transhipment point for the region. The Panama Government’s bold investment in the Canal expansion will facilitate the further growth of its ports.

PSA Panama International Terminal (PPIT) is located at the entrance of the Panama Canal, on the pacific side at the former US Rodman Naval Base. It is well-positioned to participate in the growth of this strategic hub, and provides an important port of call for shipping lines handling container and Ro-Ro cargo.
