Professional services companies in Ecuador

Ecuador's SRI Catastro RUC lists 54,796 companies in professional, scientific and technical activities (ISIC section M), 33,212 of them active, which is 9.6% of all Ecuadorian records in the LatSouth build (data as of 2026-10-01). By province, Pichincha leads with 24,723 (45% of the section), followed by Guayas (17,919) and Azuay (2,497). The largest divisions are 70 (activities of head offices; management consultancy activities, 17,565) and 71 (architectural and engineering activities; technical testing and analysis, 11,285); 5 further divisions complete it.

Consultancies, law and accounting firms, engineering offices, agencies and design studios. Division 70 also holds 'activities of head offices', where many group holding companies register, so it overstates consultancies. Division 69 is a channel in itself: accountants file for most small companies in Brazil and Colombia. Professional-services software, payroll, legal-tech and B2B marketing vendors buy this section. In Ecuador, 100% of these rows carry an ISIC class; the registry publishes no size field; the registry publishes no website or e-mail; 3,811 were registered in the 12 months before the extraction. There is no street address at the source; location is province, canton and parish.
