Foreign Shipyards: Agreements with Produce and SIMA that Boost the Fishing Sector

The development of the Peruvian fishing sector relies not only on the abundance of marine resources but also on adequate infrastructure for the construction and repair of vessels. In this context, foreign shipyards play a crucial role. Through agreements with Produce and SIMA (Industrial Services of the Navy), investments are being promoted to enhance the competitiveness of the sector.

  • The importance of shipyards:
    Shipyards are essential for the maintenance and modernization of the Peruvian fishing fleet. A modern fleet not only increases capture efficiency but also reduces environmental impact by implementing technologies that minimize fuel consumption and pollutant emissions.
  • Agreements with Produce and SIMA:
    Produce, the Ministry of Production, has collaborated with SIMA and foreign companies to modernize the infrastructure of shipyards in Peru. These agreements include the construction of new vessels as well as the repair of existing ones. Through the transfer of technology and know-how from international shipyards, the capacity of the Peruvian fishing sector is being strengthened.
  • Economic and labor benefits:
    In addition to improving the competitiveness of the sector, agreements with foreign shipyards generate direct and indirect employment in coastal areas of the country. The construction and maintenance of vessels require skilled labor, promoting training and the development of technical skills among Peruvian workers.
  • Technological transfer and sustainability:
    One of the greatest benefits of collaboration with foreign shipyards is the transfer of technology. International shipyards bring innovations that enable the creation of more sustainable vessels, reducing the environmental impact of fishing. This is crucial for keeping fishing a profitable activity in the long term without compromising the marine ecosystem.

Agreements between Produce, SIMA, and foreign shipyards have been fundamental for the development of the Peruvian fishing sector. The modernization of the fleet and the implementation of new technologies not only strengthen the industry but also generate employment and promote sustainable practices that benefit the country as a whole.
