Under this strategy, Grupo Cap concluded the sale of its steel pipe producer Tubos Argentinos S.A. (TASA) to Ternium, has opened the operation of its sea terminal Puerto Las Losas to other companies, and is developing technological centers next to universities in Huachipato for the manufacturing industries.
