Why is it called Puerto Barú en David?
The name Puerto Barú pays tribute to the Barú Volcano, which can be clearly seen from the port development site, and is the highest point and one of the most emblematic symbols of Panama. Just as the volcano is an icon in the province’s landscape, we aim for the port to become a reference for sustainable and logistics-driven development in the region.
Although the port will be located in the district of Chiriquí, and not in the district of Barú, we use “Puerto Barú en David” to clarify its location.
