Shareholders of Montecon have formally submitted a project to the Uruguayan government proposing a $900 million terminal at the port. The initiative was presented directly to the Presidencia de la República. If approved, the project is projected to create 1800 jobs. Details of the proposed terminal’s capacity and specific construction timeline were not immediately released. This represents a significant potential investment in the infrastructure of Uruguay. The government’s response to the proposal is keenly anticipated by business leaders in Montevideo and throughout the country. Further assessment will determine the project's viability and alignment with national development plans.
