How Peru's Chancay Port is changing trade

Business Daily

Available for over a year

We return to Peru’s mega port - the Chancay Port. This $3.5bn project is a joint venture between China’s state-owned shipping company Cosco Shipping and Peruvian mining company Volcan. It’s already starting to have an impact on local businesses. We find out what’s giving it the edge, how local fruit producers are particularly benefiting, and what obstacles still need to be overcome, both politically and logistically. If you'd like to get in touch with the programme, our email address is [email protected] Presented and produced by Jane Chambers (Picture: Fruit producer, Percy Perez, in Peru.)
