Among our many investor partners is Calidad Immobiliria, one of the most innovative real estate development groups in Central America. Calidad Inmobiliaria hopes to see a program similar to the Honduran REDs in Guatemala soon.

Since its founding in 2002, Calidad Inmobiliaria has sought to fascinate and delight our customers.

Calidad Inmobiliaria pioneered the mixed-use developments with Distribodegas – industrial-commercial storage, a series of multi-purpose complex which have won prestigious awards in the industry.

• World-class business environment will ensure that diverse business entities from around the world will be attracted to the region as an ideal location for operations. As a consequence, this region will be one of the world’s premier generators of new jobs.
• The area is designed in advance to provide for the rapid development of high quality, low cost housing, education, and health care for the incoming workers. It will provide workers with a significantly higher quality of life than what they experienced earlier.
• The region will subsidize diverse educational options leading to one of the most educated local workforces in the world, starting with low end business process outsourcing and leading up through highly skilled labor, and culminating in jobs in the fields of engineering, technology, and health care.
• The community features the most flexible legal system in the world, a feature which will attract entrepreneurial innovators in technology, governance, finance, education, and health care. Within a decade the region will be recognized globally for innovations first developed within the region.
• Due to proximity to the U.S. combined with exceptional Honduran customer service, elder care and medical tourism will develop into major industries.
• The government will be the lowest cost, most efficient government in the world. It is designed from the ground up to take advantage of the latest technologies and best practices from around the world to ensure that essential government services will be provided to all citizens quickly and effectively.
• The benefits of this world-class government include public safety as good as can be found anywhere in the world. We envision a community in which women and children are free to walk without fear of harm.
• The community will integrate local cultures with an international cosmopolitanism due to the international companies and entrepreneurs who will be attracted to the region. It will combine a distinctively local flavor with a distinctively international feel and will be fully Spanish-English bilingual.
• The air and water will be clean and healthy, and there will be strict controls preventing garbage, sewage, and industrial waste from contaminating the environment.
• The region will be a constructive neighbor to the surrounding community. We believe that it will be so desirable that, after following appropriate annexation procedures, neighboring communities may choose to join the entity.

Grupo MGK is a consortium of professionals with top expertise in law, governance, security, free zone design, real estate development, urban planning, education, health care, entrepreneurship and more. We have access to one of the best networks in the world of business leaders committed to socially and environmentally responsible practices. We collaborate with governments, citizens and businesses to build thriving new business and residential communities.

Many years before the Special Development Region opportunity in Honduras, our core team developed a proprietary system for partnering with land developers to provide “best of class” law so that local businesses, large and small, could have access to great law and governance. Our system has been favorably reviewed by legal teams around the world. Most recently we decided to postpone a project in Europe to focus completely on the great progress taking place in Honduras.

Our team includes members from Central America, the United States, and Canada. Most of our U.S. investors are based in Silicon Valley and know that innovation and entrepreneurship is the path to alleviating poverty and creating of broad-based prosperity.

Out of respect to the Honduran government and our ongoing collaboration with them, we are committed to not discussing speculative aspects of the project at this point in time. As the project moves forward in the months ahead we look forward to many exciting announcements as we work toward creating more jobs and better lives for Hondurans.
