Puerto Chancay, Maritime terminal in Chancay, Peru

Puerto Chancay is a Peruvian port terminal in the district of Chancay, Huaral province, about 75 km north of Lima. It covers roughly 142 hectares and includes four docks, an administrative complex, logistics services and a tunnel nearly two kilometres long. Its natural depth of over 17 metres lets ships of up to 24,000 TEUs dock.

In 2007 retired Peruvian navy admiral Juan Ribaudo de la Torre proposed a large commercial port south of Chancay's old pier and founded Chancay Port (CHP), contributing the land. In 2011 his firm partnered with Volcan Compañía Minera to form Terminales Portuarios Chancay; after Ribaudo's death Volcan took full ownership and began the first stage in 2016. In 2019 China's Cosco Shipping Ports joined, taking 60% and expanding the project, renamed Cosco Shipping Ports Chancay Perú.

The port's name comes from the Chancay district, whose town was founded in 1562 as Villa de Arnedo and took its current name in 1757. The terminal is managed by Cosco Shipping Ports Chancay Perú S.A., 60% owned by China's Cosco Shipping Ports and 40% by Peru's Volcan Compañía Minera.

The port lies about 75 km north of Lima, in Chancay district, Huaral province. Its natural depth of over 17 metres lets ships of up to 24,000 TEUs berth without dredging. The first phase includes four docks, an administrative complex, logistics services and a tunnel of nearly two kilometres.

The port terminal significantly reduces shipping time between Peru and China through optimized routes and specialized handling facilities. This makes it a key hub for South American exports to Asia.
