This partnership connects us with the region’s leading free zones association and enables us to make better-informed decisions based on how the sector is evolving across Ibero-America.

AZFA is an international association that brings together free zone parks, business chambers, and companies operating under free zone regimes in multiple countries throughout the region. Through research, convenings, and dialogue forums, AZFA addresses key topics such as competitiveness, investment attraction, job creation, and the role free zones play in the economies where they operate.

Since joining, America Free Zone has been actively participating in this collaborative, analysis-driven environment. It allows us to benchmark what’s happening in Costa Rica against other markets, identify trends, and access insights that strengthen how we manage the park and plan future projects.

Our core focus is clear: delivering workplace environments and real estate solutions within AFZ that meet companies’ real needs. Having a direct connection to AZFA helps us better understand where the free zone model is headed, what companies look for when choosing a location, and which services truly add value in today’s context.

For companies already operating at AFZ, this means being part of a park that stays current and makes decisions backed by more data, statistics, and sector analysis. Those insights translate into tangible enhancements, including refinements to our space offering, improvements to how we design common areas, and upgrades to the services we make available to your business.

At the same time, this relationship strengthens our value proposition for organizations considering establishing operations in Costa Rica. Being part of the regional conversation on free zones enables us to better explain the landscape, support decision-making with up-to-date information, and position AFZ as a well-connected park that stays closely attuned to what’s happening in the region and beyond.

Our 3P+i vision, People, Planet, Prosperity, and Innovation, is further reinforced through this broader perspective. By learning what other free zones are implementing around community, sustainability, workplace design, and services, we can continue refining our model to ensure AFZ remains competitive and aligned with the expectations of both companies and talent.

With this step, we reaffirm our commitment to providing a current, competitive, and innovation-driven environment for global companies that choose AFZ as their location under the free zone regime.
