Commercial News USA (CNUSA) is an official publication of the U.S. Commercial Service, the U.S. Department of Commerce and The International Trade Administration. It is produced by a private sector partner, Associated Business Publications International, Inc. and co-marketed and distributed by the U.S. Commercial Service. The publication is free for international companies.

CNUSA is a U.S. export catalog-magazine that promotes U.S. products and services to more than 150 countries at a fraction of the cost of any other form of advertising. CNUSA provides low-cost, extensive overseas exposure for export-ready U.S. products and services. It generates substantial overseas new-business leads for small and medium-sized U.S. firms without a heavy investment in research and travel. Small firms are defined as having fewer than 500 employees. Currently, 95.4% of CNUSA users report being in the "small" category.

There are two kinds of advertisements in the CNUSA magazine:

• Listings in which U.S. firms provide brief descriptions of their export-ready products or services, highlighting the product's competitive advantages and features, and

• Display Ads that are best described as traditional magazine advertisements. Program participants are recruited and screened by Export Assistance Centers (EACs) and the private sector publisher.
