  • Co-sponsor international business programming including seminars, trade missions and more.
  • Promote Michigan's products and services.
  • Provide Certificates of Origin.
  • Act as partner organizations for US Commercial Service offices in Detroit, Grand Rapids, Ypsilanti and Pontiac.
  • Serve as a referral mechanism for firms / individuals requiring export assistance.

Note:  Not all organizations provide the same services.  Please inquire about specific services offered.
