GROWING YOUR BUSINESS INTERNATIONALLY!!
Jose Vega, Sr. International Trade Specialist for the City of San Antonio addressed our Chamber at our August luncheon, thank you, it was very informative.
Mr. Vega advised our Chamber that San Antonio is the ONLY city in the US with four foreign trade offices: three in Mexico and one in Japan since 1992.
Some of the tips Mr. Vega shared with: Why export: 95% of your market is outside of the US, reduce dependence on existing domestic market, and extend product life cycle. Why import: extend product line iwth unique goods and services, increase profit margins with low cost/high quality substitutes, and stimulate the economy by increasing trade flows. For more information, please contact Jose Vega at 210.207.8102 or email him at jose.vega@sanantonio.gov.
