The dossier leaves 18 explicit gaps. In apparel: the exact synthetic-versus-cotton mix, the FUNDESA 2024 benchmark (PDF returning a 403 error), a georeferenced register of plants, the presence of SAE-A Trading and other Korean maquilas, the breakdown of local versus imported inputs, 2024 exports (US$1,932.96 M with no source) and the real share of GDP (the 7.7% is a verbatim AGEXPORT phrase). In BPO: the presence of 24-7 Intouch. In food and manufacturing: figures for Cervecería Centro Americana, for cbc/Beliv and for the plastics and packaging subsector. In mining: an official cut-off for licenses in force in 2025-2026 (the ACAFREMIN count was withdrawn in the audit) and the text of the Xinka decision of June 2026 on Escobal. In agriculture: reconciling quintals versus bags of coffee, berry value by product, 2025 cardamom exports (US$434.8 M / −12.2% with no source) and cardamom planted area (~150,000 ha / 70% Alta Verapaz with no source). In addition, prices for industrial parks and free zones are not public (contact ZOLIC, Zeta La Unión, Michatoya Pacífico).

The research is written in English; quoted figures, source names and the titles of legal instruments stay in the language their source published them in.

Caveat

a list of gaps; the mining licenses, 2024 apparel, 2025 cardamom and planted-area items come from corrections made in the 2026-08-19 audit

This layer is research: read from public sources by the archive's own team, every claim cited with the date it was consulted, and audited where it is marked so. It has not entered the verified store — no figure here was fetched back from its source or stamped with a retrieval time — so it wears no red provenance numeral and never mixes with the verified figures.
