Trade-USA Program connecting Florida Businesses with Buyers from Dominican Republic

The 2005 passage of the Free Trade Agreement DR-CAFTA provides significant opportunities for U.S. exporters, investors, franchising companies, importers and many others including service companies. The DR-CAFTA immediately eliminates trade tariffs on U.S. exports and DR imports. SMEs (small and medium size enterprises) as well as large size companies in the USA and DR will have the advantage of developing new business opportunities.

FFTA and its partners aimed at developing bilateral trade between US companies and prospective business partners in selected markets through a program called TRADE-USA which promotes American products and/or services as well as increases the international trade between USA and their countries through Inbound Trade Missions.

The Program emphasizes US exports although it includes opportunity for two-way trade relationships.
