Broad incumbents

• Kuehne+Nagel: One of the world's largest freight forwarders with deep Peru presence offering integrated customs brokerage, sea/air freight, and contract logistics. Comparable because it competes for the same multinational enterprise contracts and is also a PASOC customer for local handling.
• DSV: Global transport and logistics provider offering air, sea, road, and customs services across Latin America, including Peru. Directly comparable as a broad incumbent competing for integrated enterprise logistics contracts; also a current PASOC customer.
• Expeditors: US-listed global logistics company with strong Peru presence offering air, ocean, and customs brokerage services. Comparable as a broad incumbent competing for enterprise customs and freight forwarding volume in Peru without specializing in the local niche.
• DHL Global Forwarding: Deutsche Post DHL's freight forwarding division offering air, ocean, road freight and customs services with significant Peru operations. Comparable as a broad incumbent competing for multinational enterprise contracts that bundle customs brokerage with international freight.
• DB Schenker: German global logistics provider offering land, air, ocean transport, and customs services with Latin American operations. Comparable as a broad incumbent providing integrated supply chain services that overlap with PASOC's enterprise offering in Peru.

Regional players

• Agunsa: Chilean-headquartered multimodal logistics operator with Peru operations offering port services, freight forwarding, customs, and warehousing. Comparable as a regional Latin American player operating across the Pacific coast and competing for cross-border Andean trade flows.

Direct peers
