The route between Spain and Chile has gained importance due to its ability to maintain regular shipments—even in the face of global disruptions.
In a global landscape where logistics volatility has become the norm, International Line—a Chilean integrated logistics company with international presence—has consolidated one of its most stable and efficient operations: the import route from Spain to Chile and the Southern Cone, coordinated primarily from the ports of Barcelona and Valencia.
This operation is led by Alejandra Quinteros Boudon, Strategic Lead – Spain & Europe Freight Services at International Line, a recognized expert in logistics operations between Europe and Latin America. Under her leadership, this route has become a high-value option for importers seeking operational continuity, traceability, and specialized technical support.
The Spain–Chile route stands out for its ability to maintain regular shipments even during times of global disruption. Factors such as the European regulatory framework, the maturity of port networks, and the experience gained through complex scenarios have been key to ensuring the continuity of flows. “Spain operates with structures that allow it to respond swiftly to adverse geopolitical or commercial scenarios. That stability is reflected in the reliability of shipments and in the quality of service our clients in Chile receive,” says Alejandra Quinteros Boudon.
A Key Route for Strategic Sectors
This operation has enabled consistent supply for key productive sectors—particularly construction materials, food and beverages, household goods, as well as other consumer goods and mixed products. “Our work model combines flexibility in shipping, operational visibility, and document control, tailored to both large importers and companies beginning their internationalization process through consolidated cargo,” the executive adds.
The consolidation of this route has delivered concrete benefits for foreign trade stakeholders in Chile, including: regular departures from Mediterranean ports with competitive transit times; optimization of logistics costs and reduced operational deviations; access to tariff benefits under the Chile–European Union Association Agreement; and technical support at both origin and destination from highly qualified personnel.
This operation is set for sustained growth, with plans to expand its reach to industries such as specialized e-commerce, design, architecture and interior decor, gourmet products and cosmetics, as well as pharmaceutical supply chains.
“Our value proposition is not just about moving cargo—it’s about anticipating risks, building trust, and operating with excellence. This route is not just a logistics solution; it’s a strategic commercial platform between Europe and Chile,” concludes Alejandra Quinteros Boudon, Strategic Lead – Spain & Europe Freight Services at International Line.
