SECTOR 07
Logistics & Ports
The Caribbean's crossroads, astride the Panama Canal shipping lanes.
OVERVIEW
Kingston sits on the world's seventh-largest natural harbour, hosts the Caribbean's leading transshipment hub, and lies roughly thirty-two miles from the Panama Canal shipping lanes. Confiance pursues logistics and port-adjacent ventures that convert that geography into throughput — warehousing, distribution, and the services that move goods through the region.

OUR APPROACH
Logistics rewards operators who control the seams between modes — port to warehouse, warehouse to road, road to customer. The Group approaches the sector as infrastructure: long-lived assets, institutional partners, and service standards that global shippers recognize.

QUESTIONS WE’RE OFTEN ASKED
- Does Confiance operate port terminals?
- The Group's focus is port-adjacent: warehousing, distribution, special economic zone ventures, and the services that move goods to and from the terminals — the seams where operating discipline earns its keep.
- Why is Kingston's position so valuable?
- The world's seventh-largest natural harbour, the Caribbean's leading transshipment hub, and roughly thirty-two miles to the Panama Canal shipping lanes. Geography like that cannot be built — only served better.
- How does logistics connect to the rest of the portfolio?
- Agricultural exports, construction materials, and data-centre equipment all move on the same corridors. Logistics is how the Group's physical ventures reach their markets.
