The GoGlobal initiative will combine ITA, which will provide participating US small businesses with guidance, information and resources, with the global reach of Amazon, which will provide training to harness the power of the Internet to reach more customers in 21 countries where Amazon Global Selling is available, a US government release said.
Small and medium businesses represent a large percentage of US exporters and are a significant driver of American economic competitiveness.
According to US Census Bureau estimates, over 277,000 US companies exported goods in 2021 and 97.4 per cent of those identified were small and medium enterprises (SMEs). These SMEs represented 34.6 per cent of the United States’ identified $1.5 trillion in goods exports.
The new GoGlobal with Commerce and Amazon landing page will serve as a one-stop-shop for resources produced in collaboration between ITA’s Commercial Service and eCommerce Solutions Centre and Amazon’s global selling experts.
It will also serve as a hub for information on other US government programmes and resources.
