Miragoâne

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Miragoane is a coastal town in western Haïti. It is located at around 18°26′60″N, 73°5′60″W. It is regarded as one of the major ports in the trade in used goods. Bales of used clothing, shoes, appliances and used cars arrive at the port from Miami and other U.S. cities. Local merchants in the informal sector buy boxes and bales of used goods to sort and resell them in street markets. Inexpensive merchandise is thus dispersed around Haiti.
