Welcome to Maldives Islands - Economy in Maldives The Maldivian economy is dominated by fishing, which accounts for about 60 percent of all export trade. The catch is primarily tuna; corals and shells are also taken. Coconuts are the principal agricultural product; most food must be imported. Industrial activity is largely limited to fish processing and garment manufacturing. The tourist industry is growing; in the early 1990s more than 235,000 tourists visited Maldives, bringing in $18.8 million annually. The national currency is the rufiyaa which is made up of 100 laari (11.10 rufiyaa equal U.S.$1; 1994).
