Peru in the Mining Equipment Global Value Chain: Opportunities for Upgrading
Abstract
This report analyses Peru’s participation in the high quality cotton textile and apparel
global value chain. The textile and apparel sector is a key pillar of Peru’s manufacturing
sector, while the high quality cotton has been cultivated for centuries in the country.
The study uses the GVC framework to analyze Peru’s position and potential for upgrading
in the industry. This report is part of a Duke CGGC study commissioned by the World
Bank in 2015/16 to support the growth and productivity agenda in Peru with a focus
on three important industries for the country: table grapes, mining equipment and
pima cotton.
