Abstract

Mauritius is commonly cited as one of the success stories of the application of programmes for export-orientated industrialisation. This paper examines the historical evolution and performance of export-processing zones (EPZs) in Mauritius. The strengths and weaknesses of the EPZ programme are identified and certain broad policy lessons of the ‘Mauritian model’ of development are drawn.
