The strategy focuses on optimizing commercial interchange and harmonizing logistical and customs protocols between both free zone hubs.
“This Agreement Marks a Milestone in the Operational Management of the Bi-Oceanic Corridor. The Convergence of ZOFIP and ZOFRI S.A. boosts the efficiency of the global value chain and maximizes infrastructure to project new vectors of development. Our goal is the materialization of a highly competitive business environment.” – ZOFIP Institutional Statement.
