208 FOREIGN TRADE ZONES Manufacturing and shipbuilding.—There is no manufacturing in the free zone at Almeria, and no shipbuilding or ship-repair work. Influence of free port—Aside from giving Almeria a trade in oil fuels, principally for vessels, which it did not have before, the free port has had practically no influence on the development of foreign trade at that port. The import trade of the city and Province of Almeria is relatively unimportant, and Almeria is not a general distributing center. The free port at Almeria, up to this time, has had no influence on the development of the merchant marine. Commercial movement at free port.—The following table shows the movement of merchandise at the free port of Almeria during the calender year 1927: On han!
