Port performance determinants in a region are crucial to understand how these companies compete and survive. This article analyses and identifies the main performance determinants on container terminals in Brazil, regarding their traffic. This study contributes with a focus on performance in relation to competition between ports. Container ports in Brazil were analyzed from 2011 to 2016. Tests were performed by using linear regression with panel data. Evidence indicates that out of the five most relevant variables, three are related to the internal infrastructure, one related to external infrastructure and one related to the institutional aspect.
