“U.S. SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION”
“Now is a great time to explore the benefits of exporting. And, if you export already, now is the time to look at expanding to additional countries. Exporting provides opportunities to reach new markets, increase sales, maintain global competitiveness, and create jobs.”

“May is a perfect month to make your move, as it’s World Trade Month, and SBA has a lot to offer. Our export loans assist U.S. small businesses in accessing the financing needed to sell to global customers and our State Trade Expansion Program (STEP) provides grants to small businesses through awards to state governments.
To learn more, please join us on May 20 and 27 for two different exciting webinars focusing on Utilizing eCommerce Tools to Drive Global Sales. Or join us for the Business Beyond Borders: Commemorating World Trade Month webinar on May 25 to learn about STEP grants, free exporting advice and export financing. Or learn about programs that can help your business on the road to recovery with Using SBA’s International Trade Programs to Grow Your Small Business Beyond the Pandemic a webinar recorded with the Public Private Strategies Institute.
We hope you’ll celebrate World Trade Month, and make a smart move for your business’s future, by reaching out to let SBA help you reach global customers. And if it’s after May, no problem, we will still be here ready to support your expansion through trade…because every month is World Trade Month at the SBA.
