It is through the entrepreneurship culture in Mauritius that the textile sector became, and still is, a success story, prompting the confidence of other investors and attracting additional investment. Currently, the private sector owns and manages at least 60% of the investment in the Export Processing Zone. The private sector is present in all sectors of the economy, ranging from the sugar industry to trade and banking and finance.
