Puerto Rico Economic Recovery Operation

The Economic Recovery Support Function works to identify unique competitive advantages to serve as catalysts to economic growth and resiliency around Puerto Rico in pursuit of the priorities defined by the Government of Puerto Rico following Hurricanes Irma and Maria in September 2017. Puerto Rico possesses an abundance of resources, including three international airports, three commercial ports, an established pharmaceutical industry, 300 miles of open ocean coastline, fertile agricultural land, a bilingual workforce, and advantageous positioning between the continental U.S. and Africa, Central and South America, and the rest of the Caribbean.
