We are involved in emblematic projects
Some of the most emblematic projects in Peru in the last four years carry our signature. At the moment, we are concluding the second runway of Jorge Chávez International Airport and are about to begin the construction works of the new terminal for the expansion of this airport in Lima, which will make it into one of the most important hubs in Latin America.
In the mining industry, one of the major drivers of the Peruvian economy, Sacyr participates in the construction of the Quellaveco mine, hand in hand with Anglo American, one of the largest mining companies in the world, that is making an investment of more than US$ 8,000 million in Peru.
These two join another great project from 2019: the construction of the two central locations of the Panamerican and Para-panamerican games of Lima 2019 and the expansion of a refinery in La Pampilla for Repsol.
