Horton Expands to Peru
October 31, 2017 – Executive search consultants are seeing an increase in hiring mandates from around the world.

Peruvian Economy
Peru is among the world’s fastest-growing economies owing to the economic boom experienced during the 2000s. The country is experiencing a time of great optimism, with growth expected to accelerate in large part attributable to the approval of an ambitious market reform agenda.
Currently, the services sector is the main contributor to the country’s GDP, with nearly 60 percent share. Telecommunications and financial services are the main branches of the services sector; together they account for nearly 40 percent of GDP. Industry, which represents around 35 percent of GDP, has undergone a process of modernization, which has translated into increased employment in the country’s primary industrial areas. Peru’s main exports are copper, gold, zinc, textiles, and fish meal; its major trade partners are the United States, China, Brazil, and Chile.
