U.S. exporters interested in expanding their trade opportunities in Taiwan’s thriving agricultural market must apply by Tuesday, June 17. “With strong economic growth and proven demand for high-quality U.S. food in Taiwan, now is an ideal time for U.S. agribusinesses to expand their presence,” said FAS Administrator Daniel Whitley. “This trade mission will connect U.S. exporters with key buyers and help them forge partnerships to tap into this dynamic market.” Taiwan is the eighth-largest for America’s agricultural exports, with trade increasing 16 percent from 2019 to 2024. The U.S. remains Taiwan’s top supplier, accounting for 25 percent of its agricultural import market. The USDA says there should be strong opportunities for businesses that supply a number of products, including beef, pork, fresh fruit, dairy, and many others.
