Professional organization Enlace Empresarial and Puerto Rico Trade and Export are inviting local entrepreneurs to an upcoming business conference to promote local exports in “Expocibao,” the largest and most important multisectoral fair in the Dominican Republic.
Puerto Rico’s arts and crafts industry has been quietly gaining ground in recent years, driven mostly by a growing need to generate additional income or embark on a new career as the economy takes its toll on traditional employment.
A delegation of 14 local companies organized by Puerto Rico Trade to participate in the international Expocomer 2011 fair held in Panama late last month generated nearly $5 million in immediate and future sales in the areas of technology, food, construction and renewable energy, the agency announced Monday.
