AMEZQUITA, Laura    PALENCIA PEREZ, Armando. Potential local productive districts in Bogotá. []. , 18, 39, pp.113-141. ISSN 1657-4206.

This research examines the siting of industry in Bogotá (Colombia). It describes the state of the debate on industrial districts, their potential, and the status of the issue in the city. It applies the methodology proposed by Crocco et al. (2003) to identify Potential Local Productive Districts (LPDs) through a Normalized Concentration Index, using data from the Bogota Chamber of Commerce for 2012, and it performs an exercise in specialization, showing siting at the level of the Zonal Planning Unit (UPZ) and the locality. As a result, 11 sectors are established as potential LPDs, eight of which are illustrated in maps showing the potential LPDs. Some areas have several potential LPDs.
