A comparison of clustered and dispersed firms in the small-scale clothing industry of Lima

Evert-Jan Visser

This study provides empirical evidence on the strength and type of clustering advantages, contrasting the performance of small clustered firms with several control groups of dispersed producers in the garment industry of Lima, Peru. Repeated measurement facilitates an evaluation of the ability of clustered firms to respond to pressures arising from the swift trade liberalization carried out in Peru after 1990. (DSE/DÜI)
