About Curaçao
The island of Curacao, a constituent country of the Netherlands, is located in the Southern Caribbean Sea. Though a strong tourist destination, this country does not solely rely on tourism to support its economy as it possesses a strong oil refining company which lends itself to great regional and international export. Accordingly, petroleum exports account for 90% of Curacao’s external trade.
