About This Seaport
Few South American ports sit closer to Europe than Natal (BR NAT), and that geography defines its trade. On the Potengi River in Rio Grande do Norte, the port specialises in containerised fruit — mango, melon, watermelon, papaya and grapes — backed by 415 reefer plugs and around 2,300 m² of cold storage. Three berths also handle bulk grain and breakbulk, while shrimp and frozen fish round out the reefer base. The port runs its own customs facilities and direct shipping links to Rotterdam, Sheerness and Vigo. Operated by the state company CODERN, it serves regional agribusiness rather than high-volume container lines. Shippers needing greater capacity or draft typically route via Pecém or Suape.
