Textile Industry Reaches the Argentine Market on a Large Scale and Appears Promising.
Argentina is currently one of Brazil’s main economic partners when it comes to industrial exports, being the fourth largest trading partner. Only during last year, the country imported US$ 4.9 million, and one of the most traded products was textile looms with cylinders larger than 165 mm. It is worth noting that this product represented over 40% of all Argentine imports.
