Client: CURINDE

For the operator of a successful commercial free zone in Curaçao, CARANA prepared a feasibility study for a new airport zone. The study included a market analysis which examined different trends both from the end user and supplier perspective; in-depth interviews with potential customers in Latin America and Europe; profiles of principal competitors in the U.S. and Latin America; comparison/ranking of various market strategies available to the client; review and analysis of potential sites for a new free zone; and financial and economic analysis of the viability of a new free zone. The results of the analysis were incorporated into a final report recommending an implementation strategy focused on possible sources of financing, potential partners, and prospective tenants.
