The quantitative split between local and imported inputs does not exist in public sources (a gap inherited from dossier 08). Sector practice, according to Prensa Libre: local fabric and yarn are growing; trims and findings are mostly imported. The trade association's directory and statistics sit with VESTEX (AGEXPORT's Apparel and Textile Commission), vestex.com.gt/estadisticas.php; the detailed data is not public and the association has to be contacted directly.

The research is written in English; quoted figures, source names and the titles of legal instruments stay in the language their source published them in.

Caveat

VESTEX's detailed data is not public; the local/imported split does not exist

This layer is research: read from public sources by the archive's own team, every claim cited with the date it was consulted, and audited where it is marked so. It has not entered the verified store — no figure here was fetched back from its source or stamped with a retrieval time — so it wears no red provenance numeral and never mixes with the verified figures.
