In close coordination with public authorities, local communities and other relevant stakeholders, Interagua strives to provide high quality, affordable drinking water and sanitation services that exceed established standards.

The company aims at delivering the highest level of customer water and sanitation-related support services achievable, while contributing to educate and inform the public about the need to protect Ecuador water resources.

Affiliated to Proactiva Medio Ambiente, member of the UN Global Compact, Interagua accomplishes this mission using prudent utility practices and responsible environmental and social management.

Over the past years, the City of Guayaquil has been faced with a tremendous urban growth phenomenon, generating critical challenges in terms of sustainable urbanization. In this fast-changing environment, Interagua operates, rehabilitates and expands potable water and sanitation infrastructures.

The company supports the public authorities in their efforts to achieve an accelerated and sustainable economic growth in the long term, in order to meet the social needs of the population and help reduce inequality and poverty.
