Clintons preside at star-studded opening of Haitian industrial park

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton presided over the opening of a $300 million industrial park in Haiti

Located between Haiti’s second-largest city, Cap Haitien, and the northern border with the Dominican Republic, the Caracol industrial park is seen as one of the few visible signs of progress

includes the expansion of the Cap Haitien airport to accommodate large passenger aircraft and a planned port in Fort-Liberté.

Some 1,000 people already work at the park’s first factory. Operated by South Korean textile and apparel firm Sae-A Trading Co Ltd, it makes T-shirts for Wal-Mart.

A paint factory is set to open next month.

The Inter-American Development Bank committed an initial $55 million investment for the park’s construction. The lead investor, Sae-A Trading Co Ltd, said it plans to build 12 factories

Ever wonder how Walmart keeps their prices so low.
