The main goal we established for the Companhia
das Docas do Estado da Bahia - Codeba was to
transform the ports in Bahia into strategic sites
to manage and distribute cargoes throughout the
country. With this in mind, we are working aiming
to reorganize the infrastructure and achieve
technologic innovation for the harbors of Salvador,
Aratu, and Ilhéus, restoring their importance
in the development process of the State of Bahia.
The idea,
which emerged after analyzing the present scenario
and perspectives, is to provide,
the State of Bahia, with expressive harbors within
the new mapping of the Brazilian harbor infrastructure,
furnishing the necessary means to import supplies
and to grant an efficient outflow of the state’s
industrialized, mineral, petrochemical, and agricultural
products.
We anticipate
small, medium, and long-term investments with
the participation of their own resources,
as well as of the private initiative, and government.
The strategy defined by this administration
expects to see improvement and expansion works
in the
three harbors under our administration. The development and expansion policy defined
by the Company also redirects the strategy to
close new businesses along with a new harbor
management style, adopting, as its basic guideline,
an offer of high standard and high quality harbor
services with updated technology, competitive
rates, profitability, and our client’s
satisfaction.
These innovating
incursions yet to be implemented, certainly point
towards the construction of a new reality in the
field of waterway transportation in our State,
anticipating the local economy development and,
designating our State, to the frontline on harbor
modernity and efficiency.
