History
This municipality was founded on August 14, 1916 by the brothers Pedro Arango Cardona and Luis Enrique Arango Cardona, guaqueros who participated in the Antioquian Colonization of Quindío. It was elevated to the category of corregimiento of Armenia in 1917 and was established as a municipality in July 1954. The founders selected this territory for the foundation due to their visionary temperament, which allowed them to intuit the excellent economically strategic location of its soil, in which roads would be built and through which the railroad would pass.
La Tebaida was founded in the last phase of the Antioquian Colonization.
Economy
Its economy, like in all the surrounding regions, was based mainly on coffee cultivation, but the community diversified agriculture and later directed it to other products such as tobacco, fruit, bananas and citrus, due to the instability of coffee prices that occurred at one time. Also, La Tebaida developed a broader livestock and industrial vocation, and since the end of the 20th century factories of plastics, glass and other products have been installed. Some of the factories located there are Belt Colombia, Printex S.A., Proalco, Maquinalsa, Special E.A.T., Bambusa, Plásticos Fénix, Glass Aircraft de Colombia, Ladrillera La Campana and Agronet.
