Haiti is a free market economy that enjoys the advantages of low labor costs and tariff-free access to
the US for many of its exports. Poverty, corruption, vulnerability to natural disasters, and low levels of
education for much of the population are among Haiti's most serious impediments to economic
growth. Haiti's economy suffered a severe setback in January 2010 when a 7.0 magnitude earthquake
destroyed much of its capital city, Port-au-Prince, and neighboring areas. Currently the poorest
country in the Western Hemisphere with 80% of the population living under the poverty line and 54%
in abject poverty, the earthquake further inflicted $7.8 billion in damage and caused the country's
GDP to contract. In 2011, the Haitian economy began recovering from the earthquake. However, two
hurricanes adversely affected agricultural output and the low public capital spending slowed the
recovery in 2012.

Former professional football [soccer] player and chocolatier Alexandre Ferreira is also
hopeful that sales won't decline after the World Cup. Orders to chains, multinational
companies and consumers are up 50% since he launched a special range of chocolates
for the event. "In our case, the main reason to invest in the World Cup was thinking
about internationalizing our brand, knowing that many foreigners would be coming to
our country and that they would have the opportunity to be introduced to our
chocolates through one of our clients," says Ferreira, who started Brasilia-based
Aguimar Ferreira in 2011. —Stephen Timm, “Will the World Cup prove profitable for
