AGP Executive Report

Last update: 17 minutes ago

Guatemala Business & Services: Guatemala’s BPO sector is pushing into a new growth stage, but a shortage of English-speaking talent remains the main bottleneck for nearshore outsourcing demand. Water & Infrastructure Investment: Dutch Clean Tech raised €15 million and bought a 25% stake in Guatemala’s Agua del Mariscal, aiming to expand drinking-water treatment capacity. Port & Trade Skills: UNCTAD’s TrainForTrade program trained 33 port professionals (including from Guatemala) in modern port management in Valencia, strengthening regional logistics know-how. Food Safety & Public Health: A major cyclospora outbreak in the U.S. is spreading across multiple states, with Michigan nearing 1,000 cases and investigators still hunting for the source—raising fresh pressure for stronger food-safety funding. Immigration Enforcement Fallout: New reporting around ICE shootings in Houston and Maine is intensifying calls for independent investigations and policy review, with direct concern for cross-border workers and communities. Local Industry Spotlight: PriceSmart says it will open a Jamaica distribution center in 2026, highlighting the role of regional logistics hubs that already include Guatemala. Culture & Film Industry: Guatemala’s film scene gets a boost as Argot Prods expands production with multiple Guatemala-based projects.
