GAM Sees Significant Growth in Free Trade Zones

The Greater Metropolitan Area (GAM) of Costa Rica is seeing a 25% increase in free trade zones (FTZs) over the past year, highlighting its growing role as an investment hub. New zones, like "TechnoPark Alajuela" and the "San José Innovation Center," are set to boost the local economy by generating over 2,000 jobs. The GAM's strategic location, near major transport hubs, and favorable business environment make it highly attractive to investors. This expansion aligns with Costa Rica’s goal to enhance global competitiveness and attract foreign direct investment (FDI), promising significant economic and technological benefits.
