SelectFlorida (SF) invites Florida-based manufacturers and professional service providers to attend the Export Sales Mission to Santiago, Chile.

Chile continues to be a strong trading partner and export market for U.S. companies, largely due to its open market policies, zero tariffs, solid business practices, and low corruption index. The country’s history of economic and political stability, transparency, and strong democratic institutions, allows for political discourse and peaceful elections. As of January 1, 2004, duties were reduced to zero on 90 percent of U.S. exports to Chile, and in January 2015, all remaining tariffs were phased out.

Best trade opportunities for Florida companies include, but are not limited to:

• Mining
• Agriculture & Agricultural Equipment
• Energy
• Environmental Technologies
• Information & Communication Technology
• Safety & Security
• Defense
• Intelligent Transportation / Smart Mobility
• Healthcare
• Education
• Infrastructure & Construction

Florida companies can participate in pre-screened one-on-one “Gold Key” meetings with local companies interested in their product line, coordinated by the U.S. Commercial Service (USCS).

GoldKey/Matchmaker Grants Available: SelectFlorida is offering Gold Key/Matchmaker Grants to qualified companies that will offset 80 percent of the Matchmaking Registration fee for the first company representative.
