Resumen
La industria textil es uno de los sectores más versátiles debido a que su producción es ampliamente consumida en grandes cantidades por todo el mundo, esto gracias a su eficiencia, eficacia, dinamismo, creatividad, agilidad y flexibilidad para poder mantenerse en el mercado global, con clientes cada vez más exigentes que obligan a las empresas a modernizarse (Ministerio de Comercio, Industria y Turismo de Colombia- MinCIT, 2017). Por lo tanto, el presente artículo tuvo como objetivo establecer la influencia del sector textil de Colombia y Francia sobre las principales variables macroeconómicas en el período comprendido entre 2015-2017. Para ello, se realizó una recopilación documental sustentada en 58 documentos primarios, cuya sistematización se efectuó a través de fichas bibliográficas (Ortiz, 2013); bajo un enfoque de investigación cual-cuantitativo. Como resultado se vislumbró que el sector textil de Colombia presentó un comportamiento sostenido a la baja, mientras que, para el caso de Francia, su sector textil tuvo un comportamiento más variable, debido a que en Colombia la calidad de los productos textiles es irrisoria, mientras que las empresas francesas se destacaron por mayor aporte al producto interno bruto (PIB) y mejores procesos tecnológicos aplicados al producto final. Variables macroeconómicas como las exportaciones e importaciones en Francia tuvieron una tendencia favorable, caso contrario ocurrió en Colombia. Concluyendo que la dinámica económica de la industria textil de los dos países no fue activa debido a la poca innovación y modernización del sector empresarial.
The textile industry is one of the most versatile sectors because its production is widely consumed in large quantities worldwide, this thanks to its efficiency, effectiveness, dynamism, creativity, agility and flexibility to be able to stay in the global market, with increasingly demanding clients that force companies to modernize (Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Tourism of Colombia- MinCIT, 2017). Therefore, this article aimed to establish the influence of the textile sector in Colombia and France on the main macroeconomic variables in the period between 2015-2017. For this, a documentary compilation was carried out based on 58 primary documents, whose systematization was carried out through bibliographic records (Ortiz, 2013); under a qualitative-quantitative research approach. As a result, the textile sector in Colombia showed a sustained downward trend, while in the case of France, its textile sector had a more variable behavior, because in Colombia the quality of textile products is ridiculous, while that the French companies stood out for greater contribution to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and better technological processes applied to the final product. Macroeconomic variables such as exports and imports in France had a favorable trend, otherwise it happened in Colombia. Concluding that the economic dynamics of the textile industry of the two countries was not active due to the low innovation and modernization of the business sector.
