Tratado libre comercio de Ecuador con China y su incidencia en las exportaciones de camarón ecuatoriano en el periodo 2021-2022.

Abstract

The execution of the Trade Agreements has become a relevant topic for the global economy. The exportation of shrimp has emerged as a crucial player in the Ecuadorian economy, generating income, jobs, and development opportunities, while also promoting economic diversification and investment in technology and sustainability. The country has advantages such as its climatic conditions, which make shrimp production much easier compared to other countries. The data obtained in this research show hoe Ecuador is the main shrimp supplier to China, indicating that the signing of the FTA could have a positive impact on exports. The elimination of tariff barriers and the free access to the Chinese market would lead to an increase in demand, stimulating production, investment in the aquaculture industry, boosting economic growth, and generating employment opportunities for Ecuadorians.
