Gipuzkoa: A Platform with strong international influence

Due to important fishing, agricultural and stockbreeding activities, Gipuzkoa is historically recognised as one of the great industrial cradles of Europe. Thanks to its deeply rooted entrepreneurial culture, this province can now offer a highly developed industrial structure and skilled labour force.

Its excellent companies and high quality products "Made in Gipuzkoa" are well-known on the main international markets. The Gipuzkoa textile industry basically comprises solid, well-equipped, small and medium-sized companies capable of providing fast solutions to market demands.

Several of the most traditional companies in Gipuzkoa have overcome the challenge of diversification, adapting themselves to the present-day by setting up modern companies and important industrial groups in widely ranging activities including iron and steel, electronics,telecommunications and household electrical appliances; not forgetting other aspects such as technology, design, marketing or services offered to companies.


Up-to-date company management techniques, experience accumulated over years of industrial activity, and the influence and solidity of important financial entities have all contributed to making an important economical future possible for Gipuzkoa.

Thanks to the fiscal autonomy enjoyed by the Basque Country, Gipuzkoa County Council has drawn up a series of essential tax and financial aid programmes for renovating the business structure within the province. The laying of foundations for guiding business management into the 21st century means that local industry has an extremely promising future.
