MANILA -- The Philippines and other smaller countries are gaining on what used to be the sole superpower in the global call-center business, India.
The Philippines' share of the industry -- the business of helping people rectify computer problems, pitching magazine subscriptions and other time-consuming tasks -- has risen from virtually zero a decade ago to 15% today, the No. 2 spot, according to Dallas-based Everest Research Institute.
Meanwhile, India's share of the global business-processing market, while growing in value, has fallen to 40% from about 80% in 2004 as the industry spreads to other parts of the world.
This shift isn't because of a sudden aversion to India. India-based call centers still lead the industry, racking up $11 billion in revenue last year, according to the New Delhi-based National Association of Software and Services Companies, compared with the $6.8 billion earned by Philippines-based providers. India's $29 billion-a-year sector for information-technology services dwarfs other contenders.

Dominican Republic Offers Significant Call Center Opportunity
Growth within the contact center industry is always a good thing, even if this growth is in the international market and not necessarily here in the U.S. From 2006 to 2010, the global industry has frown from $52 billion to a $76 billion business. For the Dominican Republic, the opportunities are significant.
As industry projections show the global contact center market growing at an even faster pace in the future, those investigating the Dominican Republic as an option can find much to consider. In this tropical Caribbean nation, already more than 65 call centers exist.
According to Eddy Martinez, secretary of state and executive director of the Dominican Republic’s Export and Investment Center, “The call center business in the Dominican Republic has shown dynamic growth despite the global recession. For the most part, these call centers are located in free trade zones within the capital city of Santo Domingo, with other facilities operating in Puerto Plata and Santiago.
BPO firms and investors are attracted to the Dominican Republic by many factors, including the country’s close proximity to the United Stats, a strategic geographic location for the BPO industry. Significantly, the island nation has the most advanced telecommunications network infrastructure in the Caribbean and one of the 10 best in the world.”
