The maquila regime in Paraguay is experiencing its best moment, driven by the apparel sector. The alliance between Texcin and the Dass group resulted in Dass-Tex, which has already invested over US$40 million and plans to create 1,200 jobs. Brands such as Nike, Umbro and Asics are expected to begin production in the country soon.

Dass Group, a Brazilian manufacturer of brands such as Nike, Adidas, Fila, Umbro, Asics and Champion, has transferred its production line from Argentina to Paraguay, attracted by tax incentives from the Maquila Regime. The new plant, inaugurated in March, received a US$ 40 million investment. While the factory in Coronel Suárez (Buenos Aires) was closed, the unit in Eldorado (Misiones) operates at reduced capacity, generating uncertainty among workers.
