Power Crunch Watch: Ecuador’s grid faces renewed blackout risk starting October 2026, with Cenace warning that improved river flows won’t erase structural vulnerability—especially since Colombia’s electricity imports were suspended on Jan. 22, cutting a key safety cushion. Oil Windfall, Output Worry: Higher crude prices are boosting state revenue, but production is slipping and fuel imports are limiting the payoff. Retail Shake-Up: TuTi, Ecuador’s fast-growing discount chain, surged past $1 billion in 2025 revenue, signaling how price-conscious shopping is reshaping the supermarket race. Supermarket Race Meets Supply Chain Reality: As Mother’s Day demand peaks, flower logistics remain a major regional business engine—Avianca Cargo moved over 20,100 tonnes for the season, underscoring how Ecuador-linked supply chains are still tightly tied to global air freight and costs. Amazon Security vs Militarization: Indigenous Amazon groups urged the UN to curb organized crime without heavily militarizing Indigenous territories, citing illegal mining, drugs, and logging driving violence and environmental damage.
