New Costa Rican port to open in 2018, says Maersk

A port being built on Costa Rica's east coast by APM Terminals, a unit of Danish-based Maersk Group, will begin operating in 2018, after labor and environmental concerns threatened to derail the country's biggest infrastructure project.

The first stage of the Moin Container Terminal project will cost nearly $670 million and more than double current capacity, which ranks as the world's No. 1 pineapple exporter.
