• Planned Ro-Ro terminal concession tender in early 2027.
• Aggressive pursuit of Stellantis vehicle export market share.
• Capital expenditure focused on strengthening national automotive logistics.

"The Port of Setúbal is preparing a new concession for its Roll-on/Roll-off (Ro-Ro) vehicle terminal, slated for tender in early 2027. Following facility upgrades, the port authority aims to diversify its client base by capturing vehicle export logistics for Stellantis production from Mangualde. This move represents a strategic bid to challenge the dominance of the Port of Leixões in northern Portugal while maintaining its core capacity for Volkswagen Autoeuropa shipments."
