Trade Missions
Led by the Minister of International Trade, trade missions are about opening doors, providing on-the-ground support, business-to business contacts, and information and tools for all Canadian exporters, especially small and medium-sized enterprises.
These missions are an important component of Canada’s Global Markets Action Plan, to position Canadian business for export success in foreign markets.
