Nicaragua: Exporter Guide

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   NU2021-0012

Continued export success in 2022 is not certain, as the economic and business ramifications of November 2021 sham elections unfold and as persistent global logistical challenges contribute to higher shipping costs for consumer-oriented products.
