Export Sales Mission to Bogota, Colombia

September 2017 

Colombia is Florida's second largest export market and the fourth largest economy 

in Latin America making it an excellent market for

Tampa Bay exporters.

U.S. exports to Colombia have increased 15 percent since the implementation of the 

U.S.-Colombia Free Trade Agreement (FTA), which immediately eliminated import tariffs 

on 80% of U.S. consumer and industrial products. 

Due to Colombia's close ties to the United States and Colombians' appreciation for the quality 

and reliability of U.S products consumers in Colombia often favor U.S. products and services 

over those of foreign competitors making the United States Colombia's largest trading partner.
