Peru has positioned itself as a leading market for LEED certification in Latin America, with a growing portfolio of certified buildings across all typologies: commercial, residential, industrial, educational, and government. At SUMAC we have been key drivers of this growth, certifying more than 150 LEED projects in Peru.
LEED in Peru: Market Overview
Peru has demonstrated rapid and consistent growth in LEED certification, driven by corporate demand for sustainable workspaces, the availability of green financing from local banks, and an increasingly sustainability-conscious real estate market. Lima concentrates most LEED projects, but other cities such as Arequipa, Trujillo, and Piura are also seeing growth in certified projects.
