The main purpose of the special act had been to provide special privileges to the underdeveloped African countries to enable them develop their apparel industry and export more to the US markets duty free. However, over the period of time, the AGOA countries have not really performed too well and did not use this special facility to try to upgrade themselves and develop their infrastructure. However, some countries among them are organizing themselves and trying to take the advantage of extended period that the AGOA act provides. Among them some countries like Ethiopia are encouraging international investments and pulling out all stops to increase their exports and hence their economy.
