The Ceylon Chamber will be organizing an awareness session on “Exporting to the United States under the Generalised System of Preferences: New Trends and Opportunities” on 21 June. The US is Sri Lanka’s largest single export destination, accounting for 26% of total exports in 2018. At present, approximately 3,500 products from Sri Lanka are eligible to access the US market on a duty free basis under the US GSP programme. The session will be led by US Trade Policy and Economics Assistant Trade Representative Edward Gresser. The Office of Trade Policy and Economics is responsible for the implementation of the Generalised System of Preferences (GSP) programme, which is the largest and oldest US trade preference programme. The outreach session will cover both the products that are qualified under US GSP as well as the trends to be aware of in terms of the programme. The target audience for the session is current and potential exporters to the US. Gresser’s presentation will be followed by an interactive question and answer session. The awareness session will take place on 21 Juneat the Board Room of the Ceylon Chamber of Commerce at 9.00 a.m. For registration, contact 11 55 888 82 or email events@chamber.lk/nazila@chamber.lk.
