The Honduran Maritime Chamber of Commerce selected New Jersey-based HudsonAnalytix to perform the technical assistance.<\/p>\n Puerto Cort\u00e9s and Puerto San Lorenzo currently rely on paper-based transactions. Transition to digital solution will increase the efficiency of their operations and reduce the cost of maritime services. USTDA\u2019s grant will fund a roadmap to help the ports transition toward the use of digital technologies to improve their efficiency, throughput, safety, and cybersecurity.<\/p>\n Gerardo Guzman, President of the Maritime Chamber of Commerce, said, \u201cWith USTDA\u2019s support for this technical assistance, the Honduran ports sector will be able to continue to modernize and digitalize, supporting the country\u2019s maritime trade and enabling the ports to reach new levels of efficiency, throughput, and resilience.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cUSTDA is dedicated to partnering with Honduras as it seeks to optimize the efficiency of its ports sector,\u201d said Enoh T. Ebong, USTDA\u2019s Director. \u201cDigitalization will help its ports meet their high growth potential and have a transformational impact on the sector. U.S. companies offer many of the cutting-edge technologies that can help make this happen.\u201d<\/p>\n The USTDA helps companies create U.S. jobs through the export of U.S. goods and services for priority infrastructure projects in emerging economies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n maritime professional<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" March 1, 2023 \u00a9 mauricio \/ Adobe Stock The United States is providing funds to help Honduras digitalize its two largest ports, Puerto Cort\u00e9s and Puerto San Lorenzo.
