Free Zones

Free Enterprise area with special incentives for investors.

Open new opportunities to a wide diversity of activities, with attractive tax incentives and greater labor flexibility than in the rest of the national territory. Additionally, the foreign companies established in Free Zones benefit from the excellent global connectivity provided by Panama’s multimodal logistics hub. Another important advantage is that they can be established anywhere in the country.

SUCCESS CASES

“In Panama, we have almost 80 years of operation, from the factory of Natá, later on the factory Los Santos, and finally the international management of our businesses for Central America based in Panama. An economy that grows strongly, economic stability, a policy in the country that benefits the business, impeccable logistics through the Panama Canal and an international logistics center of international trade are the main reasons why we are here”
