Certified Trade Mission

Salta Certified Trade Mission

A certified mission showcasing Salta’s productive profile in viticulture, agroindustry, lithium, renewable energy, mining, logistics and tourism.

Overview

In 2017, the province of Salta partnered with ALF and the U.S. Department of Commerce to host a certified trade mission, marking one of the first large-scale efforts to connect the province’s economy with U.S. investors and international markets.

  • B2B sessions between U.S. executives and local companies across agroindustry, energy, mining and tourism.
  • Site visits to vineyards, industrial facilities and renewable energy projects.

Outcomes & Legacy

The mission generated new export opportunities in viticulture and agroindustry, exploratory partnerships in lithium and renewable energy, tourism promotion opportunities and institutional cooperation agreements between chambers of commerce in Salta and U.S. business councils.
