History
The first winner elected by Miss World Ecuador organization was Laritza Párraga from Santo Domimgo province through 2013. Although Miss World Ecuador organization has the rights to send a delegate to Miss World, Ecuador has been competing at Miss World since 1960 under the Miss Ecuador beauty pageant, which had the rights until 2012. After Miss Ecuador Organization lost the franchise to Miss World, Julián Pico acquired the rights to send a contestant to the international pageant through the national pageant Miss World Ecuador, starting in 2013. Tahíz Panus acquired the rights for Miss Supranational in 2018 and Miss Grand International in 2019. Therefor, the organization changed its name to Concurso Nacional de Belleza Belleza, and under this name the representatives are selected to compete internationally. Finally, CNB got the license to Miss Universe in 2024.
Representatives from the 24 provinces that make up Ecuador compete annually for the national title of Reina del Concurso Nacional de Belleza Ecuador. Additionally, the winner and runner-ups can be named as Miss Universe Ecuador, Miss World Ecuador, Miss Supranational Ecuador and Miss Grand Ecuador. Furthermore, the organization sent the Ecuadorian's delegate to Miss World Cup 2014 where it placed 2nd Runner-up with the participation of Laritza Párraga.
