Southeast Asia Inbound Produce Trade Mission to Washington and California ~ July 24 - 28, 2017
This event will be held in conjunction with WUSATA's Central America and Mexico Inbound Produce Trade Missions (please also register to meet with these buyers): More than 15 buyers from over three countries will travel to Washington and California to meet with fresh produce suppliers. Event participants may either join our one-on-one business meetings or have the opportunity to host the buyer delegation at their facilities for field production and processing tours.
Southeast Asia: Southeast Asia is one of the fastest growing regions of the world with rising incomes and a growing number of young, middle class consumers. Regional GDP is expected to reach approximately $1.9 trillion in 2020. Growth of U.S. agricultural exports to Southeast Asia has outpaced the general trend in recent years totaling $11.2 billion in 2016, up almost 12% from 2015. U.S. fresh fruit exports to Southeast Asia grew almost 10% in 2016.
By joining these free missions you will participate in market briefings with industry leaders, and meet with pre-qualified buyers in one-on-one table-top meetings, or have the opportunity to host your own facility tour.
