import partners (Seyoum and Abraham, 1999). This cost advantage would attract not only the ability to make sales, but also investments from firms that wish to set up in the
lower cost areas, which would also facilitate the transfer of knowledge into the local economy which will support the development of local companies. This was seen in the way
