Answer:

The correct answer is B) Outsourcing

Step-by-step explanation:

Maquiladoras is a Spanish term used to describe a company in Latin America which is exempted from taxes if they are using raw materials to process goods and then export them.

They are similar to an special economic zone in China. After the introduction of NAFTA, many major American corporations, outsourced their operations to Mexico with Maquiladoras. This enabled them to cheaply develop products and ship them to the US, while Mexico was able to earn more foreign revenue. H

However, it should be noted that Maquiladore existed way before NAFTA and were already a major source of income for many Latin American companies.
