USDA Opens Ag Trade Office in China

Fri, 17 Sep 2010 17:26:29 CDT

USDA has opened a new Agricultural Trade Office in Shenyang, the capital of northwest China’s international trade hub in Liaoning province. This Agricultural Trade Office on mainland China marks USDA’s expansion into the dynamic hub of northeast China. It also represents a significant hallmark as the United States progresses from the major market centers of Beijing, Guangzhou and Shanghai, to up-and-coming emerging city markets like Shenyang and Chengdu.


Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack says - China is a vital market for U.S. agricultural products, and this new office will help exporters take advantage of rising per capita incomes and steady economic growth in the region by raising the profile of American agricultural and food products.


China is the world’s second largest economy behind the United States and the second largest market for U.S. agricultural exports, importing roughly $13 billion worth of U.S. agricultural products in fiscal year 2009.
