Corporación América Airports S.A. CAAP

Company Overview

Corporación América Airports S.A. (NYSE: CAAP) is one of the world’s largest private airport operators by number of airports managed. The company operates, acquires, develops, and commercializes airport concessions, primarily across Latin America and Europe, with additional activities in cargo logistics and related airport services. Its revenue base is diversified across aeronautical services, such as passenger, aircraft, and cargo fees, and non-aeronautical activities including retail concessions, parking, duty-free operations, advertising, and real estate services within airport properties.

The company traces its origins to the broader Corporación América Group founded by Argentine entrepreneur Eduardo Eurnekian, which began expanding into airport privatizations during the 1990s following aviation sector deregulation in several Latin American countries. CAAP subsequently consolidated airport assets under a unified operating structure and became publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange in 2018. The company’s strategic positioning is tied to long-term concession agreements, operational expertise in emerging markets, and a geographically diversified portfolio that includes major gateway airports and regional aviation infrastructure.
