The Corporación de Exportadores de El Salvador (COEXPORT) brought together more than 100 business owners for the training session “Requirements for Exporting by Market,” a workshop aimed at strengthening the sector’s capabilities in foreign trade, strategy, and innovation—key factors for taking advantage of opportunities in the global environment.
During the event, the strong performance of El Salvador’s export sector in 2025 was highlighted. According to COEXPORT, 26 of the country’s 32 productive sectors are registering growth, driven primarily by the food products, basic metals, and rubber and plastics sectors, reflecting a more diversified and resilient productive structure.

The minister of Economy, María Luisa Hayem, participated in the event and shared the Economic Achievements for 2025, highlighting the dynamism of national production, the strong export performance, and the progress made in trade facilitation—elements that strengthen the country’s competitiveness in the region.

Representing the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Eduardo García, Director of Economic Relations, presented the progress in Economic Diplomacy, emphasizing the coordinated work with the 23 Economic Offices, which support the identification of trade opportunities and the promotion of salvadoran exports internationally.

Likewise, business strategy consultant Joaquín Rivas addressed the topic of reverse auctions, explaining how this tool allows companies to optimize costs, improve purchasing processes, and strengthen their competitiveness in global markets.


The event reaffirmed COEXPORT’s and the public sector’s commitment to fostering a favorable environment for exports, promoting specialization, innovation, and access to new markets as drivers of economic growth.
