U.S. Exporter Assistance
Opportunities Emerging for
U.S. Consumer Products in Venezuela
Venezuela’s demand for consumer-oriented products
from the United States has been growing rapidly over the
last years. Total exports of this category to Venezuela
in 2008 were US$150 million compared to US$35 million in
2003. In terms of volume, standards, prestige, and
quality, U.S. suppliers are seen by local importers,
distributors, and food processors as a reliable source
despite Venezuela’s complicated import system. |
