Nicaragua is the largest country in Central America and participates in CAFTA-DR, giving it preferential access to the US market. Key exports to the US include apparel, coffee, beef, gold, and sugar, while the US exports machinery, refined petroleum, and cereals to Nicaragua. Managua is the capital and primary commercial center, and the country's low labor costs have attracted significant textile and apparel investment.
