TOPEKA – The International Division of the Kansas Department of Commerce today announced it will begin a monthly Kansas Exporters Roundtable series in July. With three-quarters of potential customers located outside of the United States, Commerce will visit 15 cities across the state and offer assistance for small- to medium-sized Kansas companies.
“When considering whether or not to start exporting, consider viewing it as essentially expanding your business’ storefront to the entire world,” Lieutenant Governor and Secretary of Commerce David Toland said. “Exporting can bring a much wider customer base, which directly translates into increased sale numbers and profits.”
Hosted by the Kansas Commerce International Division, the Kansas Exporters Roundtable events are a collaboration with the U.S. Commercial Service and the Small Business Administration (SBA). Each partner entity will have a representative presenting on export topics such as:
“Because of our central location, available transportation and intermodal services, Kansas is an ideal state for manufacturing many high-quality products and services,” International Division Director Laura Lombard said. “The International team is equipped with top-notch staff members and numerous resources to help businesses expand sales and increase exports. I encourage you stop by one of the roundtables and see how Commerce can assist you and your business.”
