GET STARTED

Personalized export strategies for your present and future.

Market Research

We work with our clients to identify and assess the impact of marketing mix changes on customer behavior. Our goal is to provide management with relevant, reliable information about the current marketplace.

Compliance Review

Regulatory compliance and navigation of import barriers are also an important consideration in market expansion activities. FTA International has years of experience in working with the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and its agencies including the Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS), Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS), Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), and the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS). Furthermore, FTA International has successfully developed and implemented marketing plans for USDA cooperators through the Unified Export Strategy (UES) including funding sources such as the Market Access Program (MAP), Foreign Market Development (FMD), Global Basin Initiative (GBI), Emerging Markets Program (EMP), Agricultural Trade Promotion Program (ATP), and Regional Agricultural Promotion Program (RAPP).

Market Access and Development

It all begins with an idea. When establishing a commercial presence in a new market, we can help you set up local offices as you grow your market presence. We work with clients to leverage our embassy, local government, and sales channel connections to their greatest advantage.

Consumer and Trade Marketing

We are experienced in ideating and coordinating marketing campaigns throughout the Americas, including point of sale and point of purchase promotions in major retail outlets, supermarkets, and hotel and restaurant industry establishments. Our trade marketing programs targeting bulk commodities, like sorghum, beef genetics, or mohair can involve creative deployments but more often center on buyers trade missions and direct market representation.
