Operadora Portuaria Centroamericana (OPC), the Honduran division of International Container Terminal Services Inc. (ICTSI), has released its latest sustainability report showcasing its social, environmental, and economic impact throughout Honduras and the broader Central American region.

The report, covering the period from 2022 to 2024, was developed following the globally recognized Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) framework.
