Similarly, there are shipments to Honduras, the United States, Costa Rica, Mexico, Panama, the Dominican Republic, Peru and Hong Kong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><br><strong>Balance in favour of imports<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Central Bank documents that imports of ICT goods are 17.2 times higher than exports, largely explained because the Salvadoran industry is not an innate manufacturer of computers or phones, but is brought from the external market.<br><br>As of May, $210.4 million was imported, an amount that represented a reduction of $38.06 million (15.31 percent) from the same period of 2023.<br><br>China is the big supplier of these items, with a 60.7% stake. Then there is Mexico, the United States, Vietnam, Taiwan, Thailand, Malaysia, France and the Philippines.<br><br>The BCR notes that the largest exports are made up of miscellaneous, at $7.09 million May, followed by communication equipment with $1.87 million. In imports, computers add up to $87.7 million and consumer electronics ($53.4 million).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The data<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Phone imports reached $159.8 million between January and May, an increase of $2.1 million over the same period in 2023.
