Copper concentrate, grain, minerals and sulphuric acid form the backbone of throughput at Guaymas, the principal seaport of the Mexican state of Sonora on the Gulf of California. The deep-water port moves around 6.2 million tonnes a year, linking the mining and farming regions of north-west Mexico — and the south-western United States, including Arizona copper concentrate — with markets in Asia. A dedicated grain facility offers 72 silos and roughly 68,000 tonnes of storage, alongside handling of minerals, chemicals, vehicles and a growing container trade. Guaymas reaches its hinterland by rail and federal highway into Sonora, Chihuahua, Sinaloa and up to the US border. Containers remain a secondary, developing line of business — for established box services on Mexico's Pacific coast, Manzanillo or Mazatlán are the larger options. Where Guaymas excels is bulk export, heavy-lift and industrial cargo.
