Event Details

WUSATA® and the 13 Western State Departments of Agriculture, announce participation and registration in the following activity:

Mexico "Fresh Produce" Inbound Buying Mission Central Valley California (Fresno Area) July 14-15 Yakima, Washington July 17-18, 2014.

This will be an excellent opportunity for Western U.S. companies interested in the Mexican markets to meet one-on-one with qualified buyers of fresh produce. "U.S. exports of agricultural products to Mexico totaled $18.1 billion in 2013, the 3rd largest of U.S. Ag export markets. In 2013, GDP growth was 1.5% and gains of 3.5% are forecasted for 2014. U.S. purchases 78% of Mexico’s exports, and accounts for nearly 50% of Mexico’s total imports. Since the North American Free Trade Agreement, (NAFTA), Mexico has become one of the largest and fastest growing markets for U.S. agricultural products. Mexico will continue to be a growth market that represents one of the best opportunities in the world for U.S. exporters of food products." A delegation of importers and retail buyers from the market will travel to California and Washington for meetings and facility tours. Companies are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity to network and establish contacts with key buyers from the region. Meeting times are limited and are offered on a first-come, first served basis. WUSATA encourages companies to register early.
