Leasing Atlántida

What Leasing Atlántida does

Leasing Atlántida is a Honduran financial leasing company founded in 1977/1978 as the pioneer of leasing operations in Honduras, operating as a subsidiary of Grupo Financiero Atlántida, the country's leading diversified financial group. The company's core product is Leasing Financiero — financial leasing arrangements where it purchases productive assets (machinery, vehicles, equipment) selected by the customer and leases them back over 12-72 month terms with an option to purchase at the end of the contract. The product portfolio extends across specialized verticals: vehicle fleets, industrial machinery, construction equipment, medical equipment, agricultural machinery, technology/IT, office furniture, solar energy/backup power, gastronomic, and audiovisual equipment. Supplementary products include Lease-Back (asset sale-and-leaseback for liquidity generation), Créditos (direct business loans), and Certificados de Depósito a Plazo Fijo (fixed-term deposit certificates) which fund the leasing book.

The company is regulated by Honduras' Comisión Nacional de Bancos y Seguros (CNBS) and holds a Moody's credit rating. Its technology platform consists of a financial leasing management system with a customer-facing Virtual Office Portal (Portal de Oficina Virtual) enabling self-service account management, payments, and information access. Distribution is sales-led and relationship-based: business executives provide advisory services through three physical branches in Tegucigalpa (headquarters), San Pedro Sula, and La Ceiba, supplemented by website contact forms and a growing digital marketing presence across YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and TikTok. Customer segments are horizontal, spanning SMEs (PYMES), large enterprises, individual merchants, and individual consumers across manufacturing, healthcare, construction, agriculture, transportation, and increasingly renewable energy. Leasing Atlántida does not disclose revenue, funding rounds, or employee headcount beyond a 51-100 range; the company is privately held within the Atlántida group and reports no M&A, restructuring, or leadership transitions in the available data.
