Tecon Santos, the largest and one of the most efficient container terminals in South America, managed by Santos Brasil at the Port of Santos, began operations with the OPUS – TOS (Terminal Operating System) software from CyberLogitec, a specialized South Korean company in technological operational solutions for logistics terminals. With this, it takes a leap forward in the modernization and unification of container operations, ensuring an improvement in the Company's service level, planning and productivity.
