Doing Business in the United States

The United States is our largest trading partner by far. This year, more than 73 percent of our exports of goods and services will be destined to the United States.

Although doing business there can be a complex undertaking, the U.S. market offers some of the greatest opportunities in the world. Contact the Canadian Trade Commissioner Service (TCS) and benefit from our international business development professionals.
