Alcoa’s Transformation Business Unit, through its subsidiary Suralco L.L.C. at Paranam in Suriname, envisions to redevelop and repurpose its strategically located privately owned landholdings of more than 1,000 ha of port and utility infrastructure into the largest logistics and industrial hub in Suriname.

Paranam, with a port of 600 m existing docks along the Suriname river, is a strategic location for the development of the Paranam Industrial Center to attract foreign direct investment for several different industries, including shore base industries.
