For Immediate Release Media Contact: Maria Camacho mcamacho@beaconcouncil.com (305) 579-1341     The Beacon Council has assisted ABACO commercial insurance loss adjusters with new location in Miami-Dade     (Miami, FL - Aug. 22, 2013) - The Beacon Council has assisted ABACO International, a Madrid-based commercial insurance loss adjusters company, in locating in Miami-Dade County and adding 10 direct jobs and $1 million in capital investment within three years.   ABACO International specializes in insurance and reinsurance loss cases related to activities in a variety of fields including property, construction, marine, cargo, aviation and energy. The Miami office is the first U.S. location for the company.   "I'm pleased to welcome ABACO to our community, along with the new jobs and investment that they will bring," said Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos A. Gimenez. "ABACO's decision to invest in Miami is a clear indication of their business savvy, and it's just the latest affirmation of our standing as the ideal place for international companies - from Spain and points beyond - to enter both the U.S. and Latin American markets."   ABACO also chose to locate in Miami because many of the reinsurance firms are located in the same area. "Within about a mile on Brickell Avenue, you are going to find most of the key insurance and reinsurance companies and brokers," said Aurelio Gonzalez, U.S. Manager and Senior Loss Adjuster. "And many others are located in the county."   The Beacon Council assisted the company with research and marketing analysis, business contacts and referrals, and general community information. Enterprise Florida referred the company to The Beacon Council during the mission to Madrid last year.   "Spain continues to be a top market for economic development," said The Beacon Council Interim President Robin Reiter. "We welcome the addition of ABACO to the Brickell neighborhood."     About The Beacon Council The Beacon Council, Miami-Dade County's official economic development partnership, is a not-for-profit, public-private organization that focuses on job creation and economic growth by coordinating community-wide programs; promoting minority business and urban economic revitalization; providing assistance to local businesses in their expansion efforts; and marketing Greater Miami throughout the world.
