About Ecuador

Map Ecuador.png

Located on the northwest coast of South America, Ecuador is one of the smallest countries in the region with four well-defined regions, Coast, Andes, Amazon and Galapagos. Its climate, together with its fertile soil, makes it suitable for agricultural production, particularly coffee, bananas, sugar cane, cocoa, rice, fruit and timber. The fishing and shrimp industries are highly developed and natural gas and petroleum can be found.

The port of Guayaquil is the country’s most highly populated city. This makes it one of the two main business hubs in Ecuador, along with Quito, the capital. It is the main economic, cultural and financial resource center of Ecuador and stands out for its high mass transit use, and for its overall density and diversity of population. The city's port is one of the most important on the eastern Pacific coast. Seventy percent of the country's private exports leave through its facilities, while 83% of imports enter.

Investment

When it comes to investment opportunities, the country has a vast potential, making it very attractive; its aquaculture, agricultural, oil and mineral sectors, its relatively low cost of labor and transportation, and its geographical location makes it an ideal center to serve the Andean market.
