The other big Industry in Columbia
February 15, 2003LA Times have a great article on the Columbian Flower industry.
Apparently in less than 30 years Columbia have managed to become the second largest flower exporter in the world. The industry is now even more important than coffee and in 2001 brought in more than $610 Million.
The article mentions the Columbian intense but lasseiz faire work ethic which has fostered both this and the more famous cocaine industry.
It's good to hear something good out of Columbia for once.
