San José, Costa Rica
Limited Infrastructure
A lack in infrastructure
prevents the five
regions outside the
Greater Metropolitan
Area of San José from
taking proper advantage
from their exporting
potential.
According to the Chamber
of Exporters (CADEXCO in
Spanish), the lack of
proper roads,
telecommunications,
high-power lines for
industry, more efficient
ports, and railroads has
stemmed development in
rural Costa Rica.
The Minister of Foreign
Trade Marco Ruiz pointed
out the need to improve
infrastructure as the
means to actually help
the small and
medium-size exporters
who operate in rural
areas. |
