 Find Export Success in South America
Representing 593.6 million people and 2.48 percent of the world’s GDP, South America’s Spanish-speaking countries are optimistic for their region’s economic future and prosperity. Recent years have brought numerous new trade agreements and programs that have further opened up markets in South America, including the new Trans-Pacific Partnership and the Made In America tax cut program. Wisconsin companies have excellent opportunities to begin exporting to the region, including an upcoming trade venture to Argentina and Chile from September 24-30, 2016. The trade venture will allow companies to meet with prospective business partners and learn more about the markets. Additionally, Wisconsin’s trade representative for Spanish-speaking South America will be visiting Wisconsin the week of June 6 to help companies gain market intelligence in advance of the trade venture.
