Abstract

The article addresses the need to analyze whether export logistics costs may act as limitations to a greater introduction of bananas into the Netherlands market from competitors such as Peru and Ecuador. The methodology used was qualitative, using economic and logistical indicators from the World Bank. The main findings were: in construction, external marketing, logistics capacity, traceability and timeliness, Peru is better positioned than Ecuador. This leverage is due to the proximity of the producing areas to the port of shipment (Paita) (comparative advantages) and the improvement of the port structure (competitive advantages). This type of port infrastructure advantage has been achieved through concessions of its main shipping ports, thus reducing costs. In addition, Peru's maritime logistics model is optimal compared to Ecuador's chartering model.
