1. INTRODUCTION

Currently, Peru’s important macroeconomic stability and dynamic economie, acknowledged worldwide, has fostered a marked dynamism in the gross domestic product, in foreign investment and in exports.

The GDP growth process, which began in 2001, has been sustained to the point of reaching a level of 9.88% during 2008. On the other hand, despite of the international financial crisis, Peru during the 2009 registered GDP growth of 1.12%. Furthermore, this has been one of the few countries in the world in achieving a positive economic growth, foreseeing that in the following years levels of economic growth registered before the crisis will be retaken and even surpassed.1

Total Peruvian exports have had a record growth: going from 7,000 million dollars in 2001 to 26, 624.6 million in 2009. This outcome is not only due to the high prices of raw materials internationally but also to the significant diversification and quality of non-traditional exports.2

Peru is a country rich in natural resources, with a geographic and climatic diversity that allows for a wide range of products of excellent quality. The Pacific Ocean supplies an abundance of fish and marine resources. The coast, with its numerous fertile valleys, provides high quality cotton and agricultural products appreciated worldwide and which are harvested during the opposite season to that of the northern hemisphere. The Peruvian Andes is rich in mineral resources. Peru is the first world silver producer and the first gold, zinc, tin, and lead producer in Latin America and the second copper producer in the region. The biodiversity and forestry wealth that exists in the Amazon rainforest are huge and have great quality. Peruvian textile exports show great dynamism thanks to the high quality of its cotton, alpaca, and vicuna Peruvian fibers, as well as to the high technology and design of the textile industry.

The publication of the Peruvian Non-Traditional Exportable Goods with Potential in the Swiss Market responds to an initiative of the Peruvian Embassy in Switzerland. It became a reality thanks to the valuable support of the Swiss Import Promotion Programme for Prioritized Developing Countries (SIPPO) and to the important work carried out by the Ministry of Foreign Relations of Peru, PROMPERU, the National Industry Association, ADEX, COMEXPERU and the Lima Chamber of Commerce. This is an objective sample of the strong alliance being forged between the public and private sectors in favor of Peruvian exports.

This publication, which is preceded by a marked and sudden increase in Peruvian exports, has been prepared as a useful and practical consultation guide for the Swiss importer, based on a careful identification of a selected group of non-traditional export

1 Source: PROMPERU (formerly PROMPEX), SUNAT2 In Peru, a distinction between traditional and non-traditional goods is usually made which differs significantly from the categorisation known in Switzerland: fishing, agricultural, mineral, petroleum, and derivates are seen as traditional sectors in Peru. This guide deals about the products from the Peruvian non-traditional sectors which include: Agriculture and livestock, fishing, textile, timers and papers, and its manufactures, chemical, non-metallic minerals, basic metal industries and jewellery, fabricated metal products and machinery and other products.

Page 7: PRINCIPAL NON-TRADITIONAL PRODUCTS WITH POTENTIAL · PDF fileprincipal non-traditional products with potential in the swiss market. 4 peru’s exportable ... textile and garments 60

products with high capacity for gaining a share in the competitive Swiss market.

Five sectors were chosen for this edition with 31 products in different types of offers, which imply other tariff items. These are set forth as a first proposal to be assessed by Swiss importers. The sectors are: Agribusiness, Fish and Shellfish, Textile and Garments, Wood and one which we have named “Others”, which includes products such as caustic soda, jewelry-costume jewelry and software. It contains the most important data and characteristics of each product and updated export statistics to show its importance in the Peruvian foreign trade. Likewise, it shows the main uses of the selected products, which stand out for their high quality and potential to meet the needs of the demanding Swiss market.

We are sure that the dissemination of non-traditional exportable goods, with potential in the Swiss market, will contribute to the development and improvement of trade and bilateral economic relationships between both countries, in the context of the free trade agreement between Peru and Switzerland as a member of the EFTA.

Our special thanks to all the people and Peruvian institutions that have made possible the preparation of this document, as well as to Mr. Markus Stern of SIPPO, and to Mr. Hans_Peter Egler, Head of Trade Promotion of the Swiss State Secretarial of Economic Affairs (SECO) whose support has been essential in making the project a reality.

For most of the exported products from Peru to Switzerland no custom taxes have to be paid (as a part of the Generalized System of Preferences, GSP). Nevertheless there are some exceptions which are especially indicated in this guide by the information box “Tariff: GSP. The main source of information is the mentioned International Trade Map: Other important sources are the Peruvian Custom Authorities. Further explanations to the HS Structure and GSP are given in part two of this publication “Swiss Market Information for Peruvian Exporters”.

2. AGRIBUSINESS

2.1. OVERVIEW

During the last five years, the Peruvian agro-industrial sector exports registered an average annual growth of 24.38%, reaching a FOB value of US$ 1.917 million 2008 (5, 4% of the total exports). Such growth is explained by the increase of the number of hectares for culture, the removal of sanitary barriers in markets like the United States and China, the best quotations in the international markets, as well as by a greater diversification and added value of exported products.

In 2008, 618 tariff items were exported of which 115 tariff items registered a FOB value near US$ 2,000 millions. Among products with greatest growth were: Fresh Avocados (US$ 72.6 million – 55.79% of growth), Fresh banana (US$ 45.5 million – 47.7%), Fresh Grapes (US$ 86.2 million – 44.15%), evaporated milk (US$ 88.88 million – 37.2%), and prepared or canned artichokes (US$ 83.3 - 28,9%).

2.2. PISCO

5 See map of Peru, page 5 for better orientation

Peruvian pisco is an alcoholic drink of the brandy family belonging to a variety of grape firewater (“aguardiente”). It has been produced in Peru since the end of the 16th century. It is the typical spirit from Peru, distilled from grapes, whose value is known beyond the country’s borders as is proven by the shipping registries from the port of Pisco towards European and American countries such as England, Spain, Portugal, Guatemala, Panama since the 17th century and to the United States of America since the mid 19th century. Origin of the Name•InPre-Colombiantimes,thelargenumberofbirdsthatinhabitedtheareaofthe

Pisco, Ica and Nazca valleys (known by these names for more than four centuries) were called pisqu (pisku, phishgo, pichiu) in the Quechua language.

•Thus, the first grape brandy to be produced in Peru was stored in piskos andas time went by, the alcoholic drink came to be known by the name given to its container.

Table 3: Peruvian Harvest Seasons of Coffee

Final CommentsCurrently, coffee constitutes as one of the main replacement products for the execu-tion of the national initiative “Alternative Development” within the actions carried out by Peru in its strategy to fight drug trafficking and production. The coffee cultivation areas are situated along the upper Jungle and tropical Andes, considered as one of the most important critical rural areas within Peru, as it comprises the largest number of ecosystems in the world threatened by human activities. The special microclimate conditions of these areas favor the production of high quality coffee.

There are many developments programs operated by national and international NGO´s, mostly in tropical Andes.

Final CommentsPeru produces the aromatic cacao type characterized by its high fat content that can reach levels of 57%, which gives it a high commercial value and great potential for the production of organic cacao as a crop in agro-forestry systems.

As the same way of Coffee, Cacao is one of the main replacement products used in “Alternative Development” programs.

Harvest SeasonBanana plantation and harvest in Peru takes place all-year-round.

Final CommentsPeru has found an interesting niche in the organic market and has become one of the main exporters. Due to microclimates in the northern coast, we almost have no plagues and illnesses which allow the production without agrochemicals. Also, these climate conditions allow the production and harvest all year long which let us export in the European winter.

Our principal competitors are Dominican Republic, Costa Rica and Ecuador.

4. WOODEN & PAPERS MANUFACTURES

4.1. OVERVIEW

During the last five years, exports of the lumber sector and its Peruvian manufactures registered an average annual growth of 20%, reaching a FOB value of US$ 427 million 2008 (1 % of the total exports, see Graph 1). Such growth is explained by an improvement in the handling of forests, the best quotations in the international markets, and by the venturing into new market niches such as materials and finished goods for the construction sector.

Final CommentsThe deckings market had a boost between 2003 and 2008 (see Graph 6). However, the exported amounts are still in the range of one million US$ a year, with the participation of some 25 companies during the last five years. An important demand is foreseen for the deckings market and at present, the problem seems to be related more to the supply than to the demand. What the market is looking for regarding this product are hardwoods, AD and KD, in consistent dark red colors, highly resistant to the attack of destructive biological agents such as fungi and insects, preferably knot-free, that do not require preserving chemical treatment and with good dimensional stability.

5. TEXTILE AND GARMENTS

5.1. OVERVIEW

During the last five years, the exports of the Peruvian textile and clothing sector registered an average annual growth of 16.7% reaching a FOB value of US$ 2,025 million 2008 (6,5% of the total exports). Such growth is explained due to a highly integrated industry recognized by its “full package” service, the quality of the raw materials, excellent manufacturing and finishing, quick answer, as well as by the fulfillment of rigorous practical and social responsibility standards.

Graph 1: Exports in the Textile and Clothing Sector 1997-2008

In 2008, 674 tariff items were exported of which 161 registered a FOB value of more than US$ 1million (see Table 1). Cotton t-shirts sales abroad registered an increase of 3.5% due to greater Venezuela purchases (15.2%). The United States, with a slight decrease, (-2.7%) were the main destination of cotton shirts, followed by Venezuela.

Textile and Apparel Industry

The textile industry in Peru has its legacy in ancient pre-Columbian cultures. This tradition isbasedontheworkof luxuryfibersasPimaandTanguiscotton,vicuñaand alpaca that together with a state-of-the-art integrated industry renowned by its product quality, design, short delivery lead times, competitive prices among other advantages, has allowed Peru to have a unique offer.

Peruvian Cotton

For over 4,500 years, cotton was the Inca’s main material, naturally dyed with insects and plants, and then skillfully knit using techniques that were way ahead of their time. The Spanish, amazed by the methods used to cultivate cotton, the variety of its natural shades, the skill applied in its processing, and the delicacy of the resulting products, introduced new customs and techniques from the European world, enriching the long Inca’s tradition.

Among the four grown species of cotton (its scientific name is “Gossypium”): G. Barbadense, G. Hirsutum, G. Arboreum, and G. Herbaceum, the Gossypium Barbadense corresponds to South America and the Hirsutum was developed in Central America. The distribution of these species agreed with the zones where the old Inca and Maya civilizations were developed.

The varieties Pima and Tanguis came from the species Gossypium Barbadense, whose genetic origin occurred in Peru and have allowed the development of other prestigious varieties of cotton in the world. Peruvian Pima cotton has an extra long staple which is the result of the climate and fertile soil of the northern coast of Peru. Tanguis cotton, named for the Peruvian farmer who developed it over a hundred years ago, is grown in the central and along the southern coast of Peru. Its uniform length produces a yarn of great regularity, regarded for its carding and combing qualities, as well as its light weight.

During the last five years, an average of 200 exporters incorporated per year was registered, reaching 2,158 companies 2008, 169 more than the registered the previous year. 216 companies exported for a value of more than US$ 1million.

Both varieties are easy to blend with other fibers -either natural or synthetic- including alpaca, silk, angora, Tencel and Modal, as well as they are easy to dye, unlike other cotton species that needs additional processes to remove the impurities and irregularities.

At the moment, thanks to the efforts led by the Peruvian Institute of Cotton (IPA), with the support of INIEA, INCAGRO, CIRAD of France and the University of Arizona (USA), new varieties of cotton are being developed and adapted to be bred in Peru, like the American Pima. The Peruvian variety Tanguis has also been improved and so obtained the “Improved Tanguis” cotton. This new variety will increase its refinement and resistance, so the spinning potential of the fiber will improve too.

The Peruvian textile and apparel companies are recognized by the quality of their products, with spinning titles up to 120 with Pima variety. These very fine titles are obtained from the long and extra long staples.

The Peruvian textiles and apparel of cotton are more and more being appreciated in the world, for that reason companies like Lacoste, Armani, Liz Claiborne, Nautica, Ike Behar, Polo Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger among others develop their production in Peru.

resistant and also resists the solar radiation. The alpaca fiber is tubular, which gives an advantage to the production of warmer and lighter garments.

More than 80% of alpaca fiber production is concentrated in Peru with two varieties, SuriandHuacaya.SuriisalmostexclusiveofPeru;itsfiberislong,shiny,smooth,silky and resistant. However, Huacaya represents 90% of the population of alpacas in Peru. The alpaca is the only animal that offers a great variety of natural colors, thus attractive and elegant garments can be developed. It also has an excellent affinity to the dyeing, increasing the variety of available tones.

Some traditional factors have also supported the conservation of the species. The Chaco is a ceremony from the Inca’s era that consists in gathering the animals in the wild to verify their health state and then shear them.

Since the beginning of this new century, the alpaca and vicuña apparel haveaccentuated their position in an important niche of market, which is in constant growth. This happened because the consumers appreciate a comfortable garment, made of natural fibers with smooth luster.

The Peruvian exporting companies are in the capacity to interpret and to adapt the different customer’s needs. Peruvian garments of fine animal hairs are commercialized in the United States, England, Japan, France, among other countries, distributed by prestigious worldwide brands.

The interest in the alpaca apparel and textiles has grown in the last years, because its fiber has the following attributes:

Geographic DistributionCurrently Huacho and Otuma are major sources of raw material depositsin the country

Chemical Composition and Properties

6.1. CAUSTIC SODA

Liquid caustic soda is a tacky colorless and highly hygroscopic solution that rapidly absorbs moisture from the air. It is a strong base used as a chemical agent that violently attacks metals such as zinc, aluminum, copper and lead, and alloys such as bronze and brass. It reacts violently with acids and with certain compounds such as acrylonitrile, acrolein and maleic anhydride. It reacts with chloroethylene to form explosive compounds such as dichloroacetylene. The melting point is at 328° C (533° F) and the boiling point at1390° C (2444° F). It is a highly hygroscopic and very deliquescent product, which quickly absorbs carbon dioxide and water from the air.
