Adalberto Garcia, Founder & Chief Executive FAMENSAL

One Salvadoran company which has not waited around for a trade agreement to export its products to the U.S. is Famensal. Founded eight years ago, Famensal manufactures machinery for packaging liquids and powders. Eighty percent of the firm's production is sold abroad and annual billing is around $500,000. "Our machines can compete with anything produced in the United States and cost half as much," says Famensal's founder and chief executive Adalberto Garcia. "We're the perfect solution for small enterprises."
