Description
Wondering who you need to know and what you need to take your product overseas or start your own export business? We’ve got you covered.
Kentucky has made a major push to encourage small businesses and entrepreneurs to explore foreign markets. From the Kentucky Export Initiative, Global Cities Initiative, and US Small Business Administraitons, Grants are available to help fund your efforts. Time has never been better to start selling to or creating a your own business abroad.
Our half-day primer will provide everything needed to identify international markets, classify your product and properly determine logistics, tariff costs and documentation to safely start exporting. We’ll also connect you with local resources to make the process easy!
This workshop includes:
- Export Assessment and Market Research

- Getting Paid and Export Financing
Step-by-step assignments and complimentary consultation with Center staff are provided to make your product export ready for the safe entry into global markets.
