Netherlands Antilles Retail Food Sector (12/15/2000)

 

This interesting group of Dutch islands imports 90 percent of their food products. As a result, import costs have dramatically decreased and most tariffs are kept under 10 percent. The United States appreciates 80 and 60 percent market share in Sint Maarten and Aruba respectively. Both islands are enjoying a thriving economy, which relies heavily on the tourism industry.
