Summary, etc. Considers the evolution of the EPZs in the Dominican Republic and their wider impact on economic performance. Provides a brief overview on trade preferences from which the country benefits, concentrating on the GSP and CBI - since manufactured exports are almost exclusively directed toward the US. States that EPZ production in the Central American and Caribbean region has predominantly associated with unskilled labour, which makes it an ideal locale for operations such as apparel and shoe assembly.
