Most companies expanding into the U.S. lose time, margin, and control.

The Caribbean Economic Corridor enables duty-free access to the U.S. through nearshore manufacturing in the Dominican Republic, connecting capital from the Middle East and Europe to U.S. markets.

What is the Caribbean Economic Corridor?

The Caribbean Economic Corridor is a structured pathway that allows companies to manufacture in the Dominican Republic under free zone incentives and export to the United States duty-free through CAFTA-DR. It reduces shipping time, lowers tariff exposure, and improves operational control compared to overseas supply chains. Companies operating within Dominican Republic free zones benefit from 100% tax exemption on profits, imports, and exports under Law 8-90, with 2–4 day shipping to U.S. east coast ports via a proven nearshore manufacturing strategy.
