The Peru Exporters Association (Adex) has reported that, between January and September, exports of wooden doors and frames were worth $746,400 million, a six-fold increase over the same period last year. Panama is the main market for the wooden doors and frames accounting for over 90% of shipments from Peru rose due to massive investments in both public and private construction in Panama.
