trading partner, accounting for about 47
percent of Costa Rica's total imports.

on May 21 - 22, 2018 as part of the
Market Development Cooperator
Program (MDCP) award the association
received from the U.S. Department
of Commerce to support export
promotion projects in Latin America.
	 The Costa Rica trade mission is
a business development opportunity
designed to assist U.S. companies
in the automotive industry with
gaining first-hand market information
and meeting with potential clients
and partners, which are prescreened to match participants'
specific business objectives.
	 Trade mission packages include
personalized business-to-business
matchmaking meetings, hotel
accommodations, local transportation,
meals, interpreters and market
overview briefings. The trade mission
is open to all companies in the
industry, with qualifying companies
eligible to receive a $2,000 offset of

imports. Under the Central AmericaDominican Republic Free Trade
Agreement (CAFTA-DR), 100 percent
of U.S. consumer and industrial goods
exports to the region are no longer

and political stability have made it
historically the leader in the region for
international business and tourism.
	 Previous trade missions to Latin
American countries, organized by the
Auto Care Association in collaboration
with the U.S. Commercial Service,
have included Guatemala, Peru,
Colombia, Honduras and Nicaragua.
