About Port of Posorja

Posorja is a port located in Ecuador's Guayas province, situated at the delta of the Guayas River. It handles some fish processing activities, with facilities supporting this industry.

Background
Posorja is a small village in Ecuador that lies about 120 km from the city Guayaquil at the delta of the Guayas River. Posorja lies in a very dry climate zone. Many years ago, the main occupation in Posorja was fishing. However, increasing pollution of the sea and new high-tech fishing methods have drastically lowered the income of the people of Posorja. Three fish processing factories give part-time work to some of the people. Of the 15,000 people in the area, 60% do not have regular employment.
