The Superintendence of the Port of Itajaí has been assumed by Fábil da Veiga. His appointment to the position had been officially confirmed in the Jornal do Município newspaper on January 1st, 2021. This is the second time that the executive has occupied the position of Superintendent of the Port Authority.

Fábio da Veiga is 41 years old, was born in Itajaí, is married, and has two children. He has a law degree, specializing in Corporate and Business Law. During the first term of Mayor Volnei Morastoni, Fábio worked at the Superintendency of the Port of Itajaí between 2005 and 2008, holding the positions of Legal Advisor, Legal Director, and Audit Advisor. In his last position beginning in January 2017, he was also part of the team acting as Audit Advisor and Legal Advisor. In May 2019, he had already been recommended by the mayor to occupy the position, and, as a standard procedure of the legislative government through the Organic Law of the Municipality, he was put on sabbatical during the Extraordinary Session and on that occasion, his name was approved by all the councilors present for the position. After he went through the public inquiry process at the headquarters of the City Council, he officially took over that month as Superintendent where he remained for five months.

During the previous management period, actions were carried out such as the resumption and completion of the works of Berths 3 and 4, the implementation of the 1st stage of the New Evolution Basin at the Itajaí and Navegantes Port Complex, new nautical signaling, a new polygonal for the organized port, a port expansion and expropriation plan, more than 30 RoRo operations, renovation dredging, nautical chart updating, expansion and modernization studies at the Port of Itajaí (privatization project), and others.
