MICHATOYA PACIFICO is a CLASS “A” SITE that provides the COMPLETE PACKAGE to satisfy all your needs. It enables you to dedicate your time and efforts to doing what you do best
The Complete Package
The best possible location in Guatemala for accessing export markets while taking advantage of raw materials supply potential. It is at crossroads of highways not only to these ports but also of highways to Mexico and El Salvador. Developers are building a bypass of the City of Escuintla to considerably reduce distances, avoid traffic and increase speed to all export destinations.
It is a short distance from Puerto Quetzal on the Pacific Ocean which is where the majority of Guatemalan exports are channeled. The same highway connects with Puerto Santo Tomás de Castillo on the Atlantic Ocean. It also leads to Honduras.

it maximizes your bottom line
Maximizing your bottom line is what Michatoya Pacífico is all about. The Michatoya Team has designed everything, taking into full account that investor and manufacturer site selection is essentially based on that goal.
To begin with, purchasing price per hectare is enticingly low. Of course, this is not an income statement item unless the option is taken to enter into attractive rent or lease arrangements, but it frees up a lot of cash for working capital.
Regarding INCOME STATEMENT items to increase the bottom-line performance, the following are relevant:
Lower labor costs. Minimum wage in Guatemala is three or four times lower than many minimum wages in the United States. Guatemalan workers are renowned for their productivity and for their manual dexterity skills. For highly-labor-intensive industries, lower labor costs with high productivity are crucial.
Lower electric energy costs. The cost will be about (US $.08/kw) which is the lowest cost in the region and two to three times lower than energy costs for businesses in most other countries.
Lower rent or lease payments (if property and buildings are rented or leased).
Lower raw materials costs. This will be true for raw materials produced nearby in the areas of agriculture, forest products and mining.
Lower cost of water. It will be available in abundant supply.
Lower construction costs. Vast experience in the construction of industrial park installations using latest technology, modern equipment and in-house developed software lead to the highest excellence in constructions at very competitive cost.
Highly-competitive tax benefits. Michatoya Pacífico is the first Zona de Desarrollo Económico Especial Pública (ZDEEP) or generalized free trade zone in Guatemala. The benefits include:
Competitive telecommunications costs. More important than the cost is the world-class quality via a 100% fiber optic network and wifi connection points available throughout the park and by satellite administered by UFINEThttps://www.ufinet.com/.
THE BOTTOM LINE
Guatemala offers the best PACKAGE
of low costs in the region.
The result of the above is more profit on the bottom line. That is what our clients are looking for. It should be mentioned that there is no 10% tax on dividends as some other countries have in their free trade zones.
Michatoya Pacífico is a combination of visionary foresight, profound business knowledge, business acumen and considerable boldness. Clients will benefit greatly from that combination.
Michatoya Pacífico is an industrial park that is more than 200 hectares in size, which is far bigger than just about any other industrial park in the region. But the total size of the project is much vaster. The developers have purchased over 1,200 hectares in total.
Within the park it facilitates the formation of clusters or more-complete supply chains. Costs of all participants will be reduced.
Supporting activities in agricultural, commerce, etc. can be conducted in the large area surrounding the industrial park.
There will be economies-of-scale benefits in transport, fee negotiation, data center services, training, laboratories and other services. Financial costs should be reduced.
It can include laboratories, packaging, use of by-products, processing materials, etc. as well as attracting the increased and cheaper supply of raw materials.
Guatemala is the land of trees.
Construction products such as prefabricated materials, iron, paint, cement, etc. It fits in well with the Wood products cluster.
There is already a partial cluster of four companies in different textile processes successfully functioning in Michatoya Palin.
There is already substantial export of these products from Guatemala. Now they will have additional incentives.
Many of these products are already exported from Central America. Producers forming a cluster in Michatoya Pacifico can find additional benefits.
This area will expand exponentially. Michatoya Pacifico intends to be at the forefront.
