Thanks to its geological wealth, Córdoba contributes one-third of the non-metallic minerals used by Argentine industries.
More than a third of the rocks used in construction come from Cordoba's quarries, which are essential for the country's infrastructure.
Córdoba contributes significantly to the country's renewable energy mix by leading the production of bioethanol.
For both the mining and bioenergy sectors, Córdoba is a province with abundant natural resources. The production of its quarries positions it as an important player in the supply of construction inputs. With a vast agricultural production, especially of corn, it is a prime location for biofuel production.
By leveraging its agricultural production, Córdoba can capitalize on the growing international demand for clean energy. The biofuel industry and the use of agricultural byproducts for renewable energy represent an opportunity to continue promoting a high-value-added sector.
Thanks to its well-developed transportation infrastructure, Córdoba enhances project competitiveness and optimizes supply chains. Its proximity to other urban centers and production areas facilitates access to neighboring resources and markets. The local metallurgical industry, which supplies specialized machinery, contributes to the self-sufficiency of the national mining sector.
Córdoba has a growing focus on sustainability, opening up opportunities for the development of projects that integrate circular economy practices. This ranges from waste management to the promotion of renewable energy and the adoption of responsible practices in various productive sectors.

This subsector includes the exploitation of industrial minerals, such as quartz, feldspar, micas, carbonates, and clays for the glass, ceramics, paper, paint, plastics, and rubber industries. It also supplies the agricultural sector with minerals for soil restoration.
Córdoba stands out as the leading producer of corn-based bioethanol in Argentina, thanks to its abundant agricultural resources. It also ranks second in biogas production, generating energy from organic and agro-industrial waste, thus diversifying the province's energy mix.
Córdoba seeks to create a favorable environment for the development of the bioeconomy, aligning itself with international standards, the energy transition, and sustainable development. To this end, it establishes a legal framework that promotes the production and consumption of biofuels and bioenergy through development programs, tax incentives, and tax exemptions.
We promote industrial development through a system of tax exemptions and non-refundable contributions. We offer a framework of fiscal predictability and stability, which translates into reduced production costs and increased competitiveness for companies. The proportion of benefits can vary and extend up to 15 years depending on factors such as the company's size, geographic location, type of activities, and whether it is a new or existing company.
Córdoba is a strategic destination for large-scale productive investments. The provincial Large Investment Incentive Scheme (Régimen de Incentivo para Grandes Inversiones) tools provide tax, customs, and exchange benefits, as well as guarantees of fiscal stability for provincial taxes. We expanded the scope of the national law, incorporating productive sectors not initially covered and supporting project development with complementary infrastructure projects and job creation programs.
Córdoba is the strategic ally for your investments.
Together, we bring transformative projects to life, creating lasting sustainable value.
