Nicaragua Highlights Trade with Venezuela

Managua - Nicaraguan authorities ratified the importance of trade with Venezuela that surpassed 6.3 million dollars in 2007 by 45 million so far in 2009.

Jorge Molina, executive director of the Center of Export Procedures (CETREX) pointed out the value of trade between the two member nations of the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of our America (ALBA).

For example, he pointed out, 30 percent of national beef sold to Venezuela, a line that occupies first place in exchange with 75 percent of the total amount of products.

In declarations reported by the digital daily, El 19, Molina reviewed the impact of the fall of exports that has been less in the country through the appearance of Venezuela as an alternative market with fair prices.

He pointed out that the main export products are coffee and beef although he explained the possibility of reaching 200 million dollars in coffee (that is now 164 million) but if beef increases at an amazing speed by the end of the year it could occupy first place.
