Overseas markets present the opportunity to increase sales and secure additional profits by opening up new territories. Expanding overseas usually leads to improving the standing of the Exporting Company in their home country.
Why Do U.S. Companies Shy Away from Exporting?
The answer is simple, the U.S. domestic market consumes over 90% to 95% of their production of goods and services, and most U.S. companies are overwhelmed by cultural differences, the complexities of import/export regulations, dealing with international buyers and the sort. The end result is losing out on the opportunity to increase their sales & profits in lucrative foreign markets.
The most important factor to keep in mind, Exports sales are extremely beneficial, companies get paid in Advance and prior to shipping: Great source of cash flow for your business.
I would like to give you some reference for this concept of Exporting and data as well. In 2018, our GDP was about $ 20. 58 Trillion, total Exports to foreign countries were $ 2.5 Trillion or about 10% of our economy.
Goods contributed 67%, or $1.7 trillion, 33% of exported goods were capital goods ($562 billion). The largest sub-category was commercial aircraft ($130 billion). Other capital goods include industrial machines ($60 billion), semiconductors ($48 billion), and telecommunications ($37 billion). Electric apparatus ($46 billion) and medical equipment ($37 billion) are also significant contributors. (Capital goods are man-made, durable items businesses use to produce goods and services. They include tools, buildings, vehicles, machinery, and equipment.)
Only 12% of U.S. exported goods were consumer goods ($206 billion of the $ 2.5 Trillion or 0.01% of our GDP). The biggest categories were pharmaceuticals ($55 billion), cell phones ($27 billion), and gem diamonds ($22 Billion). Automobiles contributed 9% of all exported goods.
In 2018, $159 billion. Just 9% of exported goods were foods, feeds, and beverages ($133 billion). The big three were soybeans ($18 billion), meat and poultry ($20 billion), and corn ($14 billion).
