El Sauce Outer Port Warehouse

El Sauce Outer Port Warehouse is a customs space intended to provide services for any type of freight, until the moment in which it is removed, for importing, exporting or any other type of customs destination.

It was devised to provide logistical support, through the most modern installations on hand, thus becoming a significant support for importing and exporting companies.

El Sauce is located strategically at 66 km from the border crossing at Los Libertadores and just 6 from the city of Los Andes, on roadway 57Ch. This privileged location offers convenient services linked to the importing and exporting of freight and loads, such as: storage, consolidation, decanting and freight monitoring.

Thanks to El Sauce Outer Port Warehouse congestion and delays have been reduced involved in importing and exporting processes, thus eliminating the lengthy waits for lorries, freeing up the border crossing and creating a reduction of environmental effects.
