Fairs moved the local market
In May, Manaus hosted the first edition of the naval industry fairs Navalshore Amazônia and Navegistic Manaus. The fairs on river logistics and maritime business brought together several national and international companies.
The Navegistic Manaus international fair on river logistics took place between May 16th and 18th, 2023, at the Studio 5 Convention Center, located on Avenida Rodrigo Otávio, Distrito Industrial I neighborhood, South Zone of Manaus.
The experience sought to create links between organizations, people and professionals, to generate business, progress and development through networking tools. The production chain of the naval sector, whether those who work in the port area, on vessels or shipyards were the target audience. The event featured talks by representatives from various organizations.
“Navalshore Amazônia” took place between May 24th and 26th, 2023, in Vasco Vasques. The fair and conference have traditionally taken place in Rio de Janeiro since 2004.
Aimed at the river naval industry, the fair brought together manufacturers of engines, communication equipment and shipyards. Shipping companies, shipyards and ship parts suppliers were also present. During the fair, conferences and lectures were held.
Market potential
On the occasion, Marcos Godoy, director of Navalshore and Revista Portos e Navios, highlighted that the region's own logistical dynamics and the importance of the river as the main transport route drove the creation of a specific event for the Amazon.
“The Amazon region has its own logistics dynamics. Due to the fact that the river is the main road, the demand for floating means of transport is perennial. This is historic and led to the development of a powerful river industry, to serve both passenger and cargo transport,” he told Jornal do Commercio at the time.
Although the naval sector is already established in the region, there are challenges and demands that need to be discussed. With the development of Arco Norte and the continued growth of transport in the region, there is a growing demand for logistics solutions and investments in shipyards to increase productivity in a sustainable way. Naiming to boost the growth of shipyards, improve productivity and ensure logistical solutions aligned with the needs of the sector. With the event, we have the opportunity to bring together the main market players, share knowledge and promote the development of the naval industry in the Amazon.” Godoy highlighted.
