The Free Trade Zone of Cádiz continues to strengthen its international ties with other free trade zones, this time in Colombia , where the State Delegate, Fran González , and part of his management team, including the Director of Business Promotion and Foreign Trade, Marta Domínguez , have held meetings with the Association of Free Trade Zones of the Americas ( AZFA ) and with representatives of the Free Trade Zones of Bogotá and IntexZona.
During their stay in Colombia , the Cádiz team visited the facilities of the Bogotá Free Trade Zone , a large 64-hectare business park located just six kilometers from El Dorado International Airport . In this zone, where nearly 400 companies operate, generating approximately 30.000 jobs, they were able to learn firsthand about garment manufacturing initiatives, a data center, and the Unifranca training program. González met with the general manager of the Bogotá Free Trade Zone, Diego Vargas , to discuss different areas of innovation and share experiences in both contexts.
“It’s very interesting to see firsthand the work being done in these Latin American free trade zones, which are important centers of development and benchmarks for logistics and international trade operations . For us, it’s very valuable to be able to bring and showcase our strengths and our full potential,” Fran González emphasized , highlighting the importance of Cádiz as a natural gateway to and from Latin America.
The Cadiz delegation also visited IntexZona, the largest free trade zone in Cundinamarca with 82 hectares, where they also held meetings on innovation and the Blue Economy , fundamental pillars in the new model of the Cadiz Free Trade Zone.
These meetings are part of the work agenda prior to the delegation's participation in Innovazul Caribe 2024 , which will be held from September 11 to 14 in Santa Marta, Colombia, where the Free Trade Zone of Cádiz will continue to promote its production spaces and Industry 4.0 projects.
