Information about Argentina
The province of Mendoza offers optimal services for export. International transport companies offering carrier services by sea, air and road provide a range of opportunities to place the exportable offer in the leading edge markets. The most important forwarders worldwide are actively operating in Mendoza.

At present, Mendoza counts on companies providing the necessary supplies for cargo conditioning that assure the exporter the best handling of the product at the time of transporting it to its destination.

Financial banking contributes to consolidating international commerce by means of different instruments such as credit lines for exporters, contingency insurance, international documents for payment and collection and international factoring.

Road Transport

A high percentage (74%) of the production in the province is transported by lorry, except oil distillates which are transported by polyducts.

National Road (NR) 7 is the main access to deliver goods out of the province. To the east, it linkss Mendoza to San Luis and Buenos Aires, and to the roads leading to the provinces of Córdoba, Santa Fé, north-eastern Argentina and to the roads to Brazil. In addition, NR 188 can alternatively be used for access to Patagonia. To the west, this road connects the province to Chile through the “Paso las Cuevas” and to other countries through the Pacific Ocean.

NR 40, which crosses the country parallel to the Andes Mountains, connects Mendoza to San Juan, north-western Argentina and Río Negro. On the other hand, NR 188 meets NR 33 and NR 3 in the Patagonia. The latter covers all the provinces of the southern part of the country, parallel to the Atlantic Ocean.

Rail Transport

“Ferrocarril de América Latina Logística” (ALL) mainly transports wine, must, cement and coke carbon to be delivered within the domestic market or abroad.

Polyduct Transport

Oil distillates are transported by means of a polyduct network that links Luján de Cuyo and Villa Mercedes, where it diverges to two destinations: Montecristo (Córdoba) and La Matanza (Buenos Aires).
