Georgia Department of Economic Development's International Trade Team

The Georgia Department of Economic Development and its U.S. Export Assistance Center partners assist hundreds of Georgia companies each year with their expansion of exports.

Georgia’s international trade professionals are nationally recognized for quality services, receiving the Presidential E-Star Award again in 2020. This is the highest honor in the nation for excellence in exporting and the Georgia Department of Economic Development is now the first entity in the nation to earn a fourth E-Star Award.

Partnerships are at the core of trade services, providing guidance, advice and critical business expertise to help companies accelerate exports and job growth in Georgia.
