Advantages to Exporting to Canada & Mexico

Take advantage of the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Free Trade Agreement (USMCA)!

Canada and Mexico are top export markets for Pennsylvania with over $20 billion in trade. Both countries enjoy a free trade agreement with the U.S. and are in need of U.S. equipment, tools, materials, and technology.

PA representatives from Toronto (Nancy Ward, Principal & Founder at Grow Trade Consulting Inc., Pennsylvania Authorized Trade Representative in Canada) and Mexico City (Efren Flores, General Director, Global Business Partners Mexico, Pennsylvania Authorized Trade Representative in Mexico) will be joining us in Pittsburgh to deliver this high-content forum, with a workshop opportunity to increase sales of PA companies into these two exciting markets.
