Last year, Governor Gregoire announced a new export initiative to open additional export opportunities for Washington businesses. By 2015, the state export initiative aims to increase by 30 percent the number of Washington companies exporting and help 5,000 businesses achieve $600 million in new export sales through direct assistance from the Washington Departments of Commerce and Agriculture.

If your business wishes to learn about or expand its exporting, contact the EDC. The Dept of Commerce exporting website. provides more information on exporting or, if you want to hear what business owners say, watch the following videos:
