Manufacturing companies in Ecuador
ISIC section C: Manufacturing. 33,457 records from the SRI Catastro RUC, 16,426 active, data as of 2026-10-01.
Section C, manufacturing, holds 33,457 Ecuadorian company records as of 2026-10-01, 16,426 of them active. By province, Pichincha leads with 11,877 (35% of the section), followed by Guayas (11,261) and Azuay (1,918). The largest divisions are 10 (manufacture of food products, 6,973) and 14 (manufacture of wearing apparel, 3,913); 22 further divisions complete it. That is 5.9% of the Ecuador registry in this build.
This is the section industrial software, ERP, IIoT, logistics, trade-finance and equipment vendors buy most. Division 10 (food) and 25 (fabricated metal products) are usually the largest; 14 (apparel) and 31 (furniture) add many small workshops; 33 (repair and installation of machinery) inflates the count with small service shops, so filter it out for a pure producer list. Size and employee fields matter here more than anywhere: use them where the registry publishes them. In Ecuador, 100% of these rows carry an ISIC class; the registry publishes no size field; the registry publishes no website or e-mail; 1,577 were registered in the 12 months before the extraction. There is no street address at the source; location is province, canton and parish.
