The nearshoring , by difference with the Offshoring, is the fact of delocalizing an economic activity, but in another area of the same country.

For example, according to the relationclient.net site, in January 2007, 16% of the French companies having a Center of call planned to delocalize it in another area of France. The interest is not to lower the quality of the center of contacts, not to undergo attacks of the press for lack of economic patriotism, while realizing some savings because certain areas have a Salaire average lower than others.
