Quotes:

"Factors that raised local production costs included high transportation costs, overdependence on imports..."

"Interlocking relationships of production among companies also kept production costs high. For example, the BGT used SONASUT's refined sugar in its production of soft drinks, according to a convention with the government to use local inputs, even though imported refined sugar was cheaper."

I think these two statements are contradictory. Biscuittin (talk) 22:44, 2 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2009-08-02T22:44:00.000Z","author":"Biscuittin","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Biscuittin-2009-08-02T22:44:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

"Manufacturing in Chad was dominated by agribusiness, and Cotontchad in particular. Next in importance were the National Sugar Company of Chad (Société Nationale Sucrière du Tchad—SONASUT), the Chadian Textile Company (Société Tchadienne de Textile—STT), the Logone Breweries (Brasseries du Logone—BdL), and the Cigarette Factory of Chad (Manufacture des Cigarettes du Tchad—MCT). Observers estimated that these five industries generated some 20 percent of GDP."

I think you need a reliable citation which can verify your list of importance and the following statistic. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tom Colo (talk • contribs) 05:18, 27 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2020-03-27T05:18:00.000Z","author":"Tom Colo","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Tom_Colo-2020-03-27T05:18:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->
