Guanacaste is once again making news, this time the fuzz is about a huge project that is being built near the Liberia International airport; and let me tell you that if you are interested in corporate relocation opportunities make a note on this one and remember this name:

The Solarium Project, (In Guanacaste)

The Solarium project is being built on 104 hectares of land, and the developers are currently building a complex that will include features like a luxury Hotel, two banking centers, office buildings, and a state of the art hospital with heliport.

On addition to the features mentioned above, the complex will also have huge and well protected warehouses, a gasoline station, and 800 condominiums.

I told you guys this is a big project.

To make the best out of this $300 million dollar investment, the Solarium group is also taking the necessary steps in order to include a “Zona Franca”, (A free Trade Zone.) on the complex.

“Guanacaste is developing as an area for recreational tourism, however, we have not overlooked the need for services. With this project we want to offer health and business services”

Those were the words of Silvana Batalla, director of Solarium; she added that the project will be finished within 6 years, and the initiative will create 15.000 direct jobs in the area.

Taking that into consideration, Guanacastecos (Locals of the area), will have time to prepare themselves to face the coming job opportunities; and investors will have time to analyze the project development.

Among the challenges that developing a project of this size could bring, the lack of potable water comes to mind right away; however Silvana Batalla says that the project developers have looked into all this things, and that three wells will service the needs of the Solarium project.

Ricardo Samper, mayor of Liberia expressed that he is not concerned over the demand for services, counting on the fact that the Solarium developers have indeed everything in place to meet them.

The Solarium project will definitely create another boom on the commercial sector for the Guanacaste area, and the benefits involved for future investments on the project are expected to show its rewards quite soon; as many of the buildings such as the warehouses are for the most part fully operational.

Just remember what I told you and write down that name.
