Introduction

Export performance has been critical for the economic development of many developing countries in recent years. It has contributed to faster growth and poverty reduction. Exporting has produced economic benefits deriving from efficiency gains associated with exploiting comparative advantages and improved allocation of scarce resources. There are also dynamic gains in the export sector driven by greater competition, greater economies of scale, better use of capacity, dissemination of knowledge and know-how, and technological progress.

Sustainable Development Goals:
