USAID West Coast Outreach
USAID Funded AgEnt Program Provides Free Support for US Agribusiness
in Sri Lanka
USAID's Agricultural Enterprise (AgEnt) program will assist US
exporters to penetrate the Sri Lankan market at no charge. AgEnt has
purchased booth space at the Amcham American Trade Fair in Colombo
which begins October 31.
AgEnt will display your product brochures and specification list for
American companies in the food business -- growing, processing, handling or
other aspects. Sri Lanka has a particularly vital market in the poultry,
aquaculture and tropical fruit sectors.
AgEnt also works with Sri Lankan entrepreneurs and will provide up to
50% financing for the purchase of American products.
Your next move:
Send 500 brochures by September 15 to:
