Our Services
The President’s National Export Initiative aims to double exports over five years by marshaling Federal agencies to prepare U.S. companies to export successfully, connect them with trade opportunities and support them once they do have exporting opportunities.
Although there is no U.S. Department of Commerce representative in Bolivia, the U.S. Embassy has a commercial office that can provide similar services. The commercial office seeks to help companies:
- Target the best markets with our world-class research
- Promote your products and services to qualified buyers
- Meet the best distributors and agents for your products and services
- Overcome potential challenges or trade barriers
- And, through the U.S. Commercial Service in the U.S., gain access to the full range of U.S. Government trade promotion agencies and their services, including export training and potential trade financing sources
U.S. companies are invited to make full use of the wide range of market entry and partner search services offered by the U.S. Embassy's commercial office.
