This case is an example of an industry that takes advantage of an open economy and a regional trade agreement to grow, improve competitiveness and impact the territory in which it is settled. 2012-06-26T15:41:25Z 2012-06-26T15:41:25Z 2008 http://hdl.handle.net/10986/9200 English CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank World Bank Latin America & Caribbean
