Key Takeaways
– Costa Rica’s economy is anchored by a diversified mix of consumer goods, tourism-related services, and utilities, with household names like Dos Pinos and Florida Ice and Farm Company leading the charge.
– The political system, defined by the 1949 Constitution, provides rare stability in a region often marked by turbulence — a key factor for long-term investors and residents alike.
