Peru's Navy selected the Korean shipyard Hyundai Heavy Industries as a shipbuilding partner, as it seeks to strengthen the local naval industry. Peru's Navy industrial services division chose Hyundai Heavy Industries after evaluating the interest of shipyards from Germany, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Spain, Italy and the Netherlands, a statement by the entity said late on Wednesday. The Navy is aiming to improve its infrastructure and technology for its shipyard located next to the port of Callao, the largest in the country on the central coast of South America.
