ZofraTacna has great tax and customs benefits for companies incorporated within its facilities. However, the true impact of said area on the economy has not been demonstrated. The objective of the study was to analyze the impact of ZofraTacna on the social-economic development of the Tacna Region, using statistical data on GDP, Economically Active Employed Population, Per capita Income and companies installed in the area. The methodology was explanatory and non-experimental, transversal in design. The data collection instruments used were the interview guide and the questionnaire. The statistical test applied corresponded to Pearson and OLS. It was determined that the independent variables influence GDP growth by 80%, highlighting the role of ZOFRATACNA as an economic engine and job generator. However, the region did not achieve adequate development between 2007-2019. Although ZofraTacna has an impact of 77.32% on economic development, the Regional Government of Tacna participates limitedly in its promotion, which restricts the use of available tax and customs benefits. It concludes with the need for more effective strategies to enhance ZofraTacna as a key tool for the sustainable development of the region.
