Summary: Using a case study of the export-oriented blue jeans industry in Torreon, Mexico, theauthors discuss the role of US buyers in promoting full-package apparel production. While thenetworks associated with this model yield better development outcomes for ?rms and workers thanthose typical of the maquila industry, the Torreon cluster is not adequately described as a ``highroad'' industrial district. The global commodity chains framework is used to assess thedevelopmental implications of the apparel industry's growth in Torreon. By emphasizing therelationship between producers and foreign buyers, this approach provides a useful way to bridgethe global±local divide in the literature on industrial clusters in developing countries. ó 2001Elsevier Science Ltd.
