Colombia Sets Sail
Colombia is projected to become an important ship repair center for the United States and the CaribbeanThis due to, but not limited to, Colombia’s:
Access to both the Caribbean and Pacific Oceans.
Proximity to the Caribbean cruise
industry.
Important port development, which will lead to gradual
increase in logistics participation in Latin America.
Inland transportation project development,
specially focused on its main river, the Magdalena.
Low manufacturing costs when compared to other
Latin American and Caribbean countries, as well
as the United States.
Large pool of professionals in maritime-related
industries such as metalworking, etc.
Colombian Maritime Industry By 2024
In the ten years, the industry expects to employ 20,000 ( between direct and
indirect jobs), and reach a turnover of USD $ 1.5 billion by 2017, with exports of USD
$500 million.

In 2019, it attended 72 repair and maintenance projects, 18 in Mamonal (25%) and 54 in Bocagrande (75%).
63 projects were attended by Cotecmar in dams (88%), 5 in docks (7%), and 3 in external docks (4%).
74% of the vessels served by Cotecmar, that is 53 projects, were of repurchase. The remaining 26&, that is 19 projects, were from new clients.
31 of Cotecmar’s projects corresponded to exports (43%), and 41 projects (57%) corresponded to national sales.
Export destinations were led by Venezuela with 37%, followed by Panama with 20%, Germany with 18% and the Netherlands with 10% (Dutch Antilles not included).
Cotecmar’s latest ship for Honduras, “Gracias a Dios” was built in 11 months by 2.500 professionals. The ship can transport 246 tons or cargo, and can travel 40 days, nonstop.
In 2019, Cotecmar showed a 30% growth in o p e r a t i o n a l income.

Business Opportunities for Dutch Companies
Research Conducted by:
SWOT
Market Insights - SWOT
Strengths Weaknesses Opportunities Threats
The subsectors with the greatest potential in Colombia are sh ipbu i l d i ng , offshore, dredging and the supply of maritime spare parts and equipment.
Colombia has built and exported top-quality ships to Guatemala and Honduras.
By 2024, Colombia is projected to become an important ship repair center for the United States and the Caribbean.
Due to the delay in the Buenaventura Port expansion project (dredging + maintenance), countries like Ecuador and Perú have taken over some of the cargo destined for the port.
Continuous growth of other Latin American shipyards such as Panama’s Astillero Nacional or Peru’s SIMA Peru, which attract a significant amount of business.
Summed to few available resources to invest, corruption greatly affects the C o l o m b i a n shipbuilding industry.
Colombia still has room to improve in relation to providing ships and vessels for the fisheries and water sports subsectors.
Many systems and components for the maritime industry are imported since they are not manufactured locally.
One of the few countries in the region with multiple rivers, but with poor in land transportation which greatly increases trade costs.
Colombia’s maritime industry expects to reach turnover of USD $1.5 billion by 2027, with exports of USD $500 million.
Currently, there are 13 port development projects throughout the Caribbean and Pacific coasts.
There are also various offshore projects in the Caribbean coast, all led by Ecopetrol.
Decree 590 of 2018 has reduced the tariff to 0% for 395 subheadings.

Contact Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Colombia and the Dutch - Colombian Chamber of Commerce - Holland House to clarify any doubt you have on the aforementioned information.
Contact the Cartagena Chamber of Commerce as they have specific clusters for the maritime industry and are the main private sector organization to get into contact with the most important companies from the sector.
Contact importers and distributors in Colombia, as they are the main point of entry for your products in Colombia. Through them you can also expand your business and sales networks throughout the country and reach new customers.
IMPORTERS &DISTRIBUTORS
Contact Colombia Productiva to learn more about Decree 590 of 2018 and all of the tariff exemption benefits it encompasses.
Contact Dutch maritime companies currently working in Colombia, to learn more about the current business environment. DAMEN would be a great point of reference, as they are currently assisting Cotecmar in manufacturing a ship for the Colombian navy and could introduce some of its Dutch providers/colleagues to Colombian potential clients.
Participate in Colombian and Latin American events on the Maritime Industry, specifically on topics related to shipbuilding and repair. COLOMBIAMAR (September 1-3, 2021) is a recommended event. This event was created to promote the development of the naval, maritime and river industries and has seen a 166% growth in sales in the past 5 years.
EXPOMARITIMA ( September 21 & 25, 2020 ), organized by World Trade Center Cartagena for the maritime industry clusters of Cartagena and Manizales, will also be conducted virtually this year.
