I work for the Exports Promotion Agency of the Government of Costa Rica (PROCOMER), making economic analysis in the Trade Intelligence Department.

I’ll be visiting New York the last week of august to make a market research to inquire about new business opportunities and trends offered by the US East Coast market for agricultural products (fresh fruits and vegetables) that could be provided by Costa Rica. Currently the USA is the 1st commercial partner of Costa Rica and it is very important for PROCOMER to increase its knowledge of this market and to find new opportunities for Costa Rican products.
 
Do you think that you, or any other person that you suggest, could have a meeting with me to talk about the opportunities, consumer trends and other relevant topics that you consider? 
 
I am interested to learn about your company´s supply chain for the purchase of fruits and vegetables and which products your company is interested in. I would also like to know if your company requests specific certifications, for example Global GAP, and finally I would like to know about the importance for your company of Costa Rican fruits and vegetables.
 
Please notify me if you are interested in having a meeting. We could schedule on the last week of august (27th to the 30th) the day of your convenience, please do indicate the time and place.

Thank you very much.
 
Best regards,
