Campo Grande has been identified as one of the most competitive municipalities in Brazil’s Center-West region. According to a study by the Centro de Liderança Pública (CLP), the city ranks among the top three in the region and has improved its position by seven spots over the last four years.

The city notably secured second place in the Center-West for the ‘Human Capital’ pillar, which measures technical and higher education enrollment and worker qualification. Other areas, including public administration, innovation, healthcare quality, and fiscal sustainability, have exceeded national medians. 

Economic data indicates significant growth, with more than 18,000 new companies becoming active between January of the previous year and September 2026. Mayor Adriane Lopes credited these developments to investments in professional qualification and the reduction of bureaucracy for business openings.
