Exports
Metro Atlanta companies exported more than $28.6 billion of goods and services in 2018.The International Trade Administration reports that companies that export products grow 20% faster, pay 20% higher wages, and are 9% less likely to go out of business than companies relying solely on the domestic market. However, less than 5% of U.S. companies’ export their products and services, and more than half of those who do export sell only to one international market. This is due in part to companies’ lack of knowledge on how to get started, uncertainty over international demand for their goods/services, and often, simply fear of the unknown. We are here to facilitate the process and help you grow your company internationally through grants, international trade missions, and by mitigating risk.
