The Dutch: Great
Trade Partners
An excellent place for
Americans to export to is the Netherlands.
Every year, the US sells more than 30 billion dollars worth of goods to
the European nation of 16 million. The leading category of American exports to
the Netherlands is pharmaceuticals - nearly five billion dollars last
year. Rounding out the top five
categories - each at roughly two billion dollars - are medical equipment,
telecommunications equipment, computer accessories and organic chemicals. Other items that Americans are having great success with in selling to the
Netherlands include civilian aircraft
and airplane parts - with combined
export value of well over a billion dollars a year - as well as dairy products,
fuel oil, soybeans and copper.
How To Get It
There
When it comes to
simplifyng the export and cargo-moving process, one of the most useful tools
for exporters across the world is FedEx,
a leading logistics services company. It was founded as Federal Express in
1971 as the first cargo airline that used only jet airplanes for its services,
and expanded rapidly after that.
Basically, it works to ease and quicken your export-import process. For example, FedEx International Priority Freight promises overseas delivery in 1 to 3
business days, while FedEx International Economy Freight is available if
you have more time. FedEx International Priority Freight flies to 130 countries
and territories. Based in Memphis, the firm also hubs in Indiana; North Carolina; Ohio; New Jersey;
California, Alaska; Texas; Florida; and Louisiana.
