Subirán de precio el pollo, el huevo, el cerdo y el pescado en Colombia por la tasa portuaria de Buenaventura, con impacto en los hogares

The District Mayor's Office of Buenaventura, Colombia, issued District Decree 0338 on August 26, 2026, establishing a new public circulation fee of $4,235 per ton for cargo entering or exiting the city's port terminals. This regulatory change is expected to increase the consumer prices of essential food items, including chicken, eggs, pork, and fish, across the country.

The implementation of this port fee is projected to have a direct economic impact on Colombian households due to the increased costs associated with the transportation and distribution of these staple goods. The measure applies to all cargo handled through the port facilities in Buenaventura.
