It has a long history of coffee cultivation. It became one of the first regions in Ecuador to adopt coffee growing, with knowledge and techniques passed down through generations. Coffee, cocoa, and tropical fruit production are key economic activities in Zamora. The region's natural resources also support beekeeping and forestry.

Zamora Chinchipe, nestled in Ecuador's green mountains, is located in the south of the country in the Amazon.

Zamora’s culture is a blend of Indigenous, Mestizo, and Spanish influences. Community life is enriched by local festivities, processions, dances, and music that foster unity and strengthen social bonds among coffee growers.
