An invitation from Lieutenant Governor Jennifer Carroll to Florida companies to explore the excellent business opportunities in South Africa

Team Florida Trade Mission to South Africa
Johannesburg & Cape Town, South Africa
November 4-13, 2011

The Team Florida Trade Mission to South Africa offers Florida companies an opportunity to identify new prospects and expand their current business activities in the South African marketplace. This multi-faceted event offers a combination of one-on-one prescheduled appointments and high level networking opportunities to qualifying Florida companies.

Florida exporters are well-positioned to gain from entry into the South African market.  Several of our Florida cities, air and seaports, and universities already have sister-city/sister-port relationships or long standing exchange programs with counterparts in Africa.  Florida’s geographic location makes us the closest U.S. State to Africa. 

South Africa, the 26th largest economy in the world, is one of the most stable markets in Africa and remains within the top 50 destinations for Florida-origin exports. With an emerging middle-class, South Africa has a number of well-developed sectors including: financial, legal, communications, energy and transportation that can yield many opportunities for Florida companies.  With the 2.8% growth of the South African economy in 2010, Florida companies can benefit from pursuing this market of interest.

The best export opportunities to South Africa are vast and we invite you to review a comprehensive list of best prospects and participation costs by clicking here: MissionBrochure
