With more than 30 years of work of 1C company on the global market, 1Ci (1C International) facilitates its growth in Latin America by establishing Colombia and Mexico regions as the key markets.

As a software provider, 1Ci already launched direct operations in Bogotá and Barranquilla. Additionally, through strategic partners, the company establishes presence in Medellín and other regions.

“We see Colombia as a benchmark for information technology in the region. We identified great market potential, technological maturity in national companies, and willingness to adopt powerful technologies such as those offered by 1Ci. We believe that this country offers 1Ci the ideal conditions to take off: talent and great capabilities for development plus a complete functional scenario of accounting and tax localization that makes it easier to extend our local experience to other regions and the world.”

Colombia is the main entry point to the Latin American market within 1Ci's expansion plans. For the company, it is a central, technologically and commercially developed country. Certainly an important IT hub in South America that has a perfect location and international recognition in terms of the commercial, industrial and agricultural aspects, a perfect setting to find new business partners, as well as a very dynamic economic society with many potential clients.

At first, the company seeks to increase the presence and awareness in Colombia for its solutions for growing companies, through the partner network. Also, it provides the development platform (1C:Enterprise) so that software companies and business groups with technical teams could build robust and flexible solutions of their own in a very short time.

Then, in the short and medium term, the 1Ci team intends to localize a line of its key products with a global reach, such as a solution for the production management in large enterprises; a solution for planning, consolidation and analysis and other tools for management and automation of business processes.

Among its employees and partners worldwide, the company has people of different origins and nationalities: Colombians, Ecuadorians, Russians, Ukrainians, Kazakhs, Turks, Moroccans, Indonesians, and more.

The 1Ci team considers it extremely important to be open to the customs and mentalities of different countries in order to do business there. Only through understanding of the particularities of each region it is possible to offer a value proposition and develop a viable business. Right now the company has local managers for each region of the world and always seeks to speak the same language with partners and customers.
