Logistics Infrastructure and Export Competitiveness
Logistics cost as a barrier to competitiveness: transport infrastructure diagnosis and priority investment proposals.
Logistics costs in Argentina represent between 27% and 32% of the value of exported products, a figure that contrasts with the 15% average in OECD countries. This gap reflects decades of underinvestment in transport infrastructure and excessive dependence on road transport.
Modernization of the freight rail system, expansion of the Paraná-Paraguay waterway, and improvement of port access constitute the investments with the greatest potential impact on export competitiveness.
Industrialization is not a luxury but a necessity for developing economies.
