P recedents: Balboa was first located at the former La Boca French Port, on the Panamanian Pacific end. The port was refurbished by the Americans at the beginning of the construction of the Canal into a modern facility named Ancon. Later it received its present name: Balboa. Since its inauguration in 1909, it was a vital port for maritime trade on the Pacific because it was the only one in its category between Salina Cruz, Mexico, and El Callao, Peru which represented the vessels
of great fret of those days (3 000 tons) a passage of two thousand miles between both points.

The Port of Balboa has had the geographic advantage that is the Isthmus of Panama, as well at the opportunity to grow according to the demands of world markets. This has caused the largest shipping lines in the world to focus on it. The growth has granted PPC the satisfaction of having 30% of the cargo market moving through the Panamanian ports (according to official numbers given by the Panamanian Maritime Authority).
Amongst the most significant events of the decade there are:
?
2006, reached the handling of 1 million TEU.
