The port operator, together with national government and port authority representatives, formally presented its Declaration of Special Economic Development Zone (ZEDE) – a high-impact project that aims to strengthen the competitiveness of Ecuador’s exports.
ZEDE will be situated in an area adjacent to the port of Guayaquil – a prime and strategic location due to the port’s interconnectivity with the country’s main production centres, other maritime ports, and airports – creating a hub of strategic interest for national and international investments.
“The ZEDE promoted by Contecon Guayaquil S.A., has an unbeatable location, next to the Guayaquil port, with an absolutely clear and stable regulatory framework that will enable the development of long-term financial and tax planning while also covering activities included in the prioritised sectors of the Ecuadorian economy,” explained José Antonio Contreras, CGSA General Manager.
