Tradition, representation and future
CONFEPAR is the Union of Cargo Loading and Unloading Checkers of the Ports of the State of Paraná, based in Paranaguá. Founded on May 28, 1938, it was born from the very growth of the Port of Paranaguá and the need for professionals dedicated to checking cargo.
Across nearly nine decades, we have led historic achievements for the category. Today, modernized and strengthened, we continue to represent the checkers with the same dedication as our founders.
