Regional logistics in Central America, the Caribbean, and South America face several challenges including equipment imbalances, high trucking and storage costs, and limited infrastructure. Maintenance and repair of equipment is an issue due to supply constraints and the need to upgrade reefers and containers. Logistics are complicated by terminal delays, inaccurate reporting, demand fluctuations, and equipment imbalances. Marine operations face political interference, lack of infrastructure investment, security concerns, and port inefficiencies related to breakwaters, depths, and customs issues.
