Why Export Why consider exporting? •
• • • • • •
96 percent of the world’s consumers live outside of the United States, so if a U.S. business is only selling domestically, they are reaching just a small share of potential customers. (a) Current dollar devaluation means that U.S. goods are cheaper in other countries giving the U.S. a competitive advantage when exporting. Exporting enables companies to diversify their portfolios and to weather changes in the domestic economy. Reduced dependence on the domestic market Diversified sources of revenue Extended sales potential and product shelf life of existing products Stabilized seasonal markets and sales fluctuations
Tremendous Opportunity •
The opportunity is so great that simply doubling the number of U.S. Small- and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) that export to 2 percent worldwide would result in approximately $400 billion in additional exports and approximately 2 million American jobs.

Exports to China Why China Largest Consumer Market the World Has Ever Known •
To maintain its growth and to ensure prosperity and social stability China’s government has made a strategic decision to restructure China’s economy rapidly moving from a manufacturing to a consumerbased economy. In this new economy, delivering consumer products and services and leisure and tourism are critical.
•
Fueled by a growing middle class with an appetite for consumer products, and now, the money to pay for them, dynamic changes are taking place in China and the import/export industry. Additionally, China has pledged to improve the balance of trade by importing more.
People - Demand - Growth - Opportunity
More Jobs •
An increase in exports to China means more job opportunities for American workers, farmers, ranchers and service providers, as well as sustained economic growth. China’s potential is so great that capturing an additional one percent of the China import market translates to $12.6 billion in additional goods and services exported and more than 74,000 U.S. jobs.
The Chinese market boasts a growing middle class, which McKinsey & Co. expects to reach 400 million by 2020, and ever widening consumer base offers a compelling destination for U.S. small-and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to boost exports and expand their business.

Exports to China What Challenges Most U.S. small businesses are not tapping into the market
Some Problems
•
The numbers tell us that Small- and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) should be exporting, and many are doing so like never before, but many more or not involved in exporting at all.
•
The demand for imported consumer goods in China is greater than the supply. These imported consumer goods include imported foods, daily necessities, home decoration accessories, handcrafts, electronic and luxury products.
•
Often small businesses do not have the resources to tap into this market.
The European Union far out-pacing the US •
Despite substantial growth in US exports to China, the US share of PRC imports has fallen over the past decade to 7 percent in 2012. In 2003, the United States held more than 8 percent of PRC imports and 10 percent in 2000. The European Union, Japan, and South Korea each export more goods to China than the United States.
3
In addition to the lack of time and money to travel to China, and not knowing the language,culture and business practices, some obstacles most likely to trip up U.S. SMEs when doing business in China include: • • • • • • •
•
Unclear regulatory environment, Cultural challenges including language & customs; Human resource constraints; Lack of capital; Market access limitations; Legal system tilted in favor of local Chinese companies; Overseas competition, especially SMEs from Germany, Europe and Asia, which enjoy well-funded government programs from their home government; Highly competitive and increasingly challenging domestic market in China amplifies the uncertainty SMEs face when doing business overseas, often for the first time.

Less than 1% of America’s 30 million companies export – this is significantly lower than all other developed countries. Of U.S. companies that do export, 58% export to only one country. Many businesses could benefit from learning more about export opportunities. Small and medium-sized companies account for 98 percent of U.S. exporters, but represent less than one-third of the known export value of U.S. goods’ exports. (In 2010, there were over 293,000 identified U.S. exporters - 269,269 of which were small or medium-sized). (c)

Exports to China Some FAQs Q: Do you know if they can help US companies handle custom clearance, transportation and phyto issue?
Q: What is the background of the Center? Is it a state-own company or private-invested company?
A: Yes. The focus of the Trade Center is to be a one-stop shop for USA based companies that want to export quality US goods to China. At the Trade Center as well as in the US, staff will be available to help companies throughout the process. We call these team members “ Evangelist.� Their role is to work with the USA based company learning their products and services, and helping them to identify the best buyer match. Areas like custom clearance, transportation, labeling etc. are where the Evangelists shine. They help to remove some of the burdens from small business new to the market or who do not have the time or resources to enter the market. Another feature about the operations at Meishan is that customs is right next door.
A: The US Import Trade Center is privately owned by a US wholly owned Foreign Enterprise that is registering in Meishan Ningbo and given a mandate by the local government to operate/trade in various sectors - with an emphasis on supporting USA based companies providing quality products and services. Meishan Ningbo Bonded Port authority entered into an agreement with the USA based company. The Bonded Port Authority has broad leaveway in developing new and innovative programs to increase imports into China. They partnered with Yilaime - USA based company, providing various incentives and credits to the USA based company allowing them to operate the US Import Center in an attractive format that will allow businesses to receive various incentives and significant reduction in costs in selling their products.

Q: Is there any company moving into the Center at the moment?

Afterwards other products from the state are planned. By the way, the Governor of Virginia, along with key staff visited Ningbo this past summer to see the Ningbo Port area.

Exports to China More FAQs Q: What is the strength of the Center in terms of its geographic location as there are a few similar type of Centers located in Shanghai and other places in Yangtze Delta region? A: The strength of the centers are many. In the planning stages a SWOT Analysis was conducted to look at Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats. Please see the attached SWOT Analysis (Attachment First Page- SWOT). The savings to USA based small business because of the incentives offered exceed any Center in existence. The Centers you may be referring to are centers that focus on any and all products entering China. The USA Trade Import Centers focus solely on USA products and services. The marketing campaigns planned, and the governmental support in China for USA based Imports at the Trade Center far exceeds any Center that focuses on bringing in any and all products. Data clearly shows that in the Centers you reference, USA businesses or either non-existent or because of the support of Governments - especially from the European Union are at a severe disadvantage. The US Import Trade Center, eliminates the European Union Advantage, and put US businesses on an even or better playing feel. various incentives are provided that allow business costs to be lower in turn the price to consumers to be very competitive. Additionally, joint efforts with China Construction Bank, and other private trade banks and the USA Export Bank,
allow buyers of the USA products to have a powerful network providing them access to trade credit. The bonded port is strategically located and one of the top Ports and trade routes in China. Its a major import route providing access to all major trading areas in China. See the diagram on some areas were the Meishan Bonded Port outshines other areas (See Page 21- Meishan Bonded Port Zone Chart). If you look at the Chart you will see that Meishan encompasses all of the features and benefits of the other programs, then some. Finally, in conjunction with the US Import Trade Center, we are developing a dedicated platform to introduce and sale USA based small businesses goods and services to the 591 million plus consumers on the Internet. In sum, there is a total package supported by the Government at Meishan China and designed to help USA based businesses Export to China increasing imports and creating jobs here in the US.
