It is estimated that at least 700 large companies are considering Colombia as a potential investment destination, especially those in sectors such as Industry 4.0, agribusiness, metal-mechanics and in areas with development opportunities in conflict-affected zones.
This growing interest reflects the recognition of the growth potential and business opportunities that Colombia offers on the global stage. The importance of foreign investment in Colombia is evident, and the figures back this up. In the last year, the country received resources from abroad, reaching a value of US$10,804 million in Foreign Direct Investment. This flow of investment has been a constant over the last two decades, demonstrating the confidence and continued interest of investors in the country.
Thanks to its strategic location and economic stability, Colombia has emerged as an attractive destination for foreign investment, attracting the interest of companies from all over the world. These companies recognise in Colombia an exceptional opportunity, either because of its privileged geographical position or its favourable economic environment.
Colombia stands out as the third largest recipient of foreign investment in the region, behind only Brazil and Mexico. Several factors contribute to this trend, as its strategic location, less than six hours by plane from the main cities in the Americas, makes it an ideal platform for exports. In addition, economic stability and skilled labour are aspects that reinforce the decision of investors to expand their operations in the country.
At the Single Window of Investment (VUI), we continuously strive to present to foreign investors the various opportunities that Colombia offers for their investment projects.
