Since 1973, SUSTA has worked with small businesses in the southern U.S. that want to export agricultural products internationally. Funded primarily by the USDA’s Foreign Agricultural Service, SUSTA offers opportunities for U.S. companies to meet foreign buyers at trade events, like Gulfood. SUSTA participants can also apply to SUSTA to receive 50% reimbursement of some international marketing expenses, like the cost of exhibiting at and travel to trade shows in foreign countries. In addition to meeting certain size standards, companies must be headquartered in the southern U.S. to participate. The products promoted through SUSTA must be made from at least 50% U.S. agriculture. More information: www.susta.org.
