Pact promotes partnerships to boost the country’s export sector

Santo Domingo.- The National Competitiveness Council (CNC) and the Dominican Exporters Association (ADOEXPO) signed an agreement Wednesday to promote partnership and develop the potential of the country’s export sector.

CNC director Andrés van der Horst and Adoexpo president Álvaro Sousa said the agreement also facilitates trade, innovation, competitive intelligence, training and logistics, as well as clusters linked to the sector, to strengthen them to face the challenges of today’s globalized world.

“Logistic fluidity and cargo transport, as well as associativity, are essential factors for the national productive sectors, both goods and services, so that they can compete within the new global and regional environment,” the entities said in a statement.

Van der Horst said the Dominican Republic must continue joining efforts to become a hub of the Americas, given the country’s privileged geographic position compared with the other nations of the continent.
