Export Assistance
Match-making services
We support Washington businesses wanting to export to British Columbia (B.C.) and Canada by providing them with match-making services with prospective customers.
The best way to sell abroad is to connect with interested companies. Canada is an easy trade partner for Washington state products and services. The language is similar. The currency exchange rate hovers around par. And NATFA has opened advantageous trade channels. As a result, it is easy to facilitate face-to-face meetings.
Jump Start Washington Exports (JustWaEx) will be providing Washington businesses with targeted match-making opportunities with companies in British Columbia and Canada.
Matchmaking can be augmented with technical assistance and one-on-one business advising and integrated research services and mini-trade missions/summits.
A virtual marketplace for Washington state exporters and Canadian buyers is also being created.
