Lima Airport awards COSCO SHIPPING and Anjun Logistics the Operation of a Tier-One Cargo Warehouse Facility at Jorge Chavez International Airport

• A key step toward consolidating the first integrated “sea–land–air” logistics corridor, linking the Port of Chancay with Jorge Chavez International Airport.
• The project will help position Peru as a logistics hub connecting to South America, boosting foreign trade and e-commerce, and effectively optimizing transport costs and cargo clearance lead times.

With the aim of strengthening the country’s logistics infrastructure and positioning Peru as a regional and intercontinental logistics and e-commerce hub, Lima Airport has awarded to COSCO SHIPPING and Anjun Logistics the operation of a tier-one cargo warehouse facility located in the South Cargo Area of Jorge Chavez International Airport. This award will enable more efficient end-to-end cargo flows between Asia and the region’s main markets.

The award—covering an estimated investment of approximately USD 20 million over the term of the contract—represents a key milestone in consolidating an integrated “sea–land–air” logistics hub in South America operating from Jorge Chavez International Airport.

The procurement process was conducted through the evaluation of clearly defined technical, operational, and commercial criteria, aligned with the airport’s strategic objectives, and included participation by first-tier national and international logistics operators. The joint proposal submitted by COSCO and Anjun Logistics stood out for its intermodal sea–air business model, supported by COSCO’s differentiated capabilities as operator of the Port of Chancay, its standing as a global logistics operators, the incorporation of new technology, and a precise understanding of the airport operating model.

The proposal places particular emphasis on advanced capability for handling e-commerce cargo. Anjun Logistics has extensive experience operating high-technology air cargo warehouses in the airside zone and currently manages one of the region’s most important e-commerce processing centers at São Paulo–Guarulhos International Airport (Brazil), with capacity exceeding 200,000 parcels per day. This experience will enable the transfer of its operational best practices and technology standards to Jorge Chávez.

“This is the first time COSCO SHIPPING has secured key infrastructure at a major air logistics node outside China, marking a decisive step in building an integrated ‘sea–land–air’ regional logistics hub in South America, as well as in driving a new logistics corridor between Asia and Latin America,” COSCO SHIPPING stated. 

For its part, Anjun Logistics highlighted its ongoing commitment to providing efficient solutions to meet growing e-commerce demand. “We have incorporated automated sorting technology (sorter), enabling faster and more accurate cargo distribution according to destination. These solutions significantly increase operational efficiency, reduce cargo release times, and allow end customers to receive their orders more quickly and reliably”.

As the country’s principal airport and Peru’s international air hub, Jorge Chávez International Airport accounts for approximately 90% of national air cargo volume. The awarded project includes a 6,885 m² warehouse, with the option to expand capacity through an additional reserve lot, depending on operational growth—both with direct airside connectivity, a scarce resource at international airports of this category.

“This project reflects a shared long-term vision to strengthen Peru’s logistics infrastructure and to consolidate Jorge Chávez International Airport as a modern, efficient regional cargo hub, connected and with enormous potential to drive the development of e-commerce alongside strategic partners,” Lima Airport Partners stated.

In the context of South America’s rapidly accelerating e-commerce growth, the award will enable COSCO SHIPPING to develop a regional forward warehouse for e-commerce cargo around the Port of Chancay. It will also enable the distribution and air dispatch of e-commerce consignments to different South America markets.

This sea–air intermodal model will significantly reduce transportation costs and improve delivery lead times compared with traditional direct-shipment schemes from Asia, providing critical support for e-commerce companies to expand their footprint in international markets and energizing foreign trade and cross-border e-commerce.
