Canada: Exporter Guide

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   CA2023-0060
Canada continues to be the top international market for U.S. consumer-oriented products, accounting for approximately 24 percent of the United States' total global consumer-oriented agricultural exports. Regulatory cooperation, sophisticated transportation logistics and financial markets, geographic proximity, similar consumer preferences, and relatively affluent consumers are the reasons Canada continues to offer excellent export opportunities for new-to-export small- and medium-sized U.S. companies. Contact the USDA Foreign Agricultural Service office in Ottawa at AgOttawa@state.gov to learn more about the great export opportunities in Canada.
