abstract = {This thesis focuses on the opportunities that are presented to Colombia in terms of infrastructure and seaport competitiveness against those terminals at the Pacific coast region. Thus, the analysis focuses on the current situation of the country's most representative port on this coast, Buenaventura Harbor, in comparison to those with more advanced conditions on the Pacific such as the Ports of Callao in Peru and Valparaiso in Chile.
This way, the document also addresses to the economic context of each country identifying commercial and industrial characteristics that along with their trade policies, result in the advance or retreat of its Seaports. These terminals are the ones that ultimately determine whether a country is in a position to participate actively on the international trade and the level of preparedness to face the globalized world.
Finally, it seeks to determine the pros and shortcomings of the Colombian ports versus the other two being analyzed in order to determine how far away is the country's ports against the largest, efficient and modern ports in the world, and to give some recommendations so the terminals could become the kind of ports that are sufficiently dynamic and productive that could only bring benefits to Colombia.},
