Gtd Perú is set to close 2025 with revenues exceeding 130 million Peruvian soles (approximately US$35 million) and is preparing a nearly US$13 million investment for the second phase of its Lurín data center, with construction scheduled for 2026, according to the company's General Manager, Sergio Mavila Rivasplata.
The complete project envisions four phases with a total approximate investment of US$50 million. "To date, we have commissioned the first phase, which has been well-received by the market," the executive stated.
The Lurín data center, one of the most modern in the country and certified as Tier III, was designed to be scaled in stages based on demand. Currently, the first phase is operating at nearly 20% capacity, a figure that could double with a single large-scale project.
"The second phase is included in the 2026 budget, with the aim of commencing operations in 2027. Everything will depend on the speed at which the first phase is occupied. If a major client were to arrive, we could accelerate the construction," explained Mavila.
Currently, Gtd operates two data centers in Lima (Surco and Lurín), which are part of a regional network of 11 interconnected data centers across Peru, Chile, and Colombia.
Gtd Perú has reported a revenue increase of close to 10% as of the end of September compared to the same period the previous year. Its growth is supported by three business lines: corporate connectivity, with over 6,800 kilometers of optical fiber deployed nationwide; cybersecurity; and data centers, a segment where it seeks to strengthen its leadership.
"Today, with the rise of artificial intelligence and ongoing technological developments, having a world-class data center like the one in Lurín is key for the corporate market," affirmed the General Manager.
In line with the group's sustainability goals, the company plans to incorporate renewable energy sources and operational efficiency in its future growth stages.
Mavila also confirmed that a recent alliance with Infracorp, the investment platform of the Romero Group, aims to boost the regional data center business. The agreement involves the sale of a 49% stake in Gtdata, the subsidiary that holds Gtd's assets in Chile, Peru, and Colombia. Gtd will retain majority ownership and the technical operation of the infrastructure.
