DETAILS
Ecolab Inc., has opened
its new Latin America regional headquarters
in Miramar, Fla.,
adding 50 new jobs to the local community.
In more than 25 countries across Latin America,
Ecolab delivers
comprehensive solutions and on-site service to
* promote safe food,
* maintain clean environments,
* optimize water and energy use, and
* improve operational efficiencies
for customers in a wide range of industries.
The United Nations estimates that
the Latin America and Caribbean population
will reach 721 million by 2030,
an increase of nearly 80 million people.
Brazil and Mexico are expected to account
for half of the region’s projected growth.
This growth will include a growing middle class
that will create increased demand
for valuable resources.
In just 10 years’ time, Mexico could be suffering
a widespread water crisis, according to
the Mexican Institute of Water Technology (IMTA).
Brazil’s water challenges have received
widespread media attention.

“This investment underscores our commitment
to the region and positions us well
for growth now and in the future,”
“Our regional headquarters supports more than
7,000 Ecolab associates who live and work
in Latin America.”
“Despite a challenging economic and political landscape
across the region, Ecolab continues to perform well,
“In 2015, we experienced double-digit sales growth
in Latin America and
the trend for 2016 remains very positive.”
“Water, energy and food are all connected.
Ecolab is well positioned to
help businesses and governments manage
the resource challenges and opportunities
that lie ahead,”
“Our new regional headquarters for Latin America
will play a key role in delivering solutions
to our customers and communities
throughout the region.”
