National Veteran Business Development Council (NVBDC) is pleased to announce the release of crucial information for Service-Disabled and Veteran-Owned Businesses (SD/VOBs) on the top ten export markets. This initiative follows our strategic partnership with the International Trade Administration’s (ITA) Vets Go Global initiative, which aims to empower veteran entrepreneurs to explore and succeed in international trade.

As the leading certification body for veteran-owned businesses, NVBDC is dedicated to opening new avenues for growth and opportunity. Our collaboration with Vets Go Global underscores our commitment to providing certified SD/VOBs with the resources and insights needed to expand their businesses beyond domestic borders.

Through the ITA’s Industry & Analysis Office of Industry Engagement’s Top Export Market Rankings, companies can determine their next export market by comparing opportunities in international markets. Created by ITA experts in the industry, this tool combines trade data, market research, and exporting tips all in one place. It offers a detailed ranking of the top markets for environmental technologies, highlighting those most likely to yield export success.

The top ten export markets report is a comprehensive guide that includes key opportunities, market trends, and strategic insights tailored for veteran-owned businesses. This valuable resource will help SD/VOBs identify potential markets, understand regulatory environments, and navigate the complexities of international trade.

Highlights of the report include:

  1. Market Analysis: Detailed examination of the top ten export markets with specific opportunities for SD/VOBs.
  2. Regulatory Guidance: Essential information on compliance and regulatory requirements in each market.
  3. Strategic Insights: Practical advice on market entry strategies and best practices for exporting.
  4. Success Stories: Case studies of veteran-owned businesses that have successfully expanded into international markets.
  5. Visual Journey: Highlights from the ITA’s Top Export Market Rankings tool, offering an engaging overview of market prospects.

Brigadier General (Ret) Dick Miller, President of NVBDC, stated, “Our partnership with the International Trade Administration’s Vets Go Global initiative represents a significant step forward in our mission to support veteran entrepreneurs. By providing this detailed information on top export markets, we are equipping our certified veteran owned business with the tools they need to succeed on a global scale.”

Through this partnership, NVBDC and the ITA are also planning a series of workshops and webinars to further educate and assist VOBs in their export endeavors. These events will offer hands-on training, expert advice, and networking opportunities with other veteran-owned businesses and international trade professionals.

NVBDC invites all certified veteran-owned businesses to take advantage of this invaluable resource and join us in exploring the vast opportunities that lie in the global marketplace.

And if you are a Veteran Business Owner we invite you to register for our upcoming “Doing Business with the Federal Reserve & Corporate America” event held in partnership with the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago and hosted by DTE Energy.

This signature event will take place on Thursday, August 8th, from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM at the DTE Energy offices in Detroit, MI.
