Parque Industrial Duarte: Outstanding Industrial Park Strategic Location & Connectivity Caribbean 2026
Parque Industrial Duarte earns recognition for translating geography into dependable competitive advantage, pairing scale with disciplined infrastructure choices that reduce friction for tenants and strengthen national supply-chain resilience. Its 3,500,000 m2 exclusively industrial footprint provides long-term planning certainty, while governance through clear internal rules and pre-arranged permits lowers execution risk for new projects and accelerates time-to-operation. The Park’s strategic value is evidenced by hard connectivity metrics: it sits at the intersection of Santo Domingo’s Circunvalacin and the Duarte Highway, directly linking the country’s North, South and East economic regions, and enabling rapid access to key gateways including Rio Haina Port (26 km, 25 min), Multimodal Caucedo Port (61 km, 50 min), Las Americas International Airport (57 km, 45 min) and Joaqun Balaguer Airport (19 km, 20 min). This is not proximity for its own sake; it is operational optionality that supports both domestic distribution and export readiness, reinforced by heavy-load internal avenues designed for efficient manoeuvring. Service reliability is treated as a strategic asset: a private aqueduct with 1 million gallons of storage and an on-site electrical substation interconnected to the national transmission network underpin continuity and predictable cost control. With 40 plus companies and 4,000 plus jobs, the Park demonstrates sustained tenant relevance, while stated initiatives on wastewater treatment and reuse, energy efficiency and renewable generation indicate responsible stewardship aligned to modern investor expectations. The Capital Finance International (CFI.co) Judging Panel congratulates Parque Industrial Duarte on winning the Outstanding Industrial Park Strategic Location & Connectivity 2026 Award (Caribbean).
