From Our Clients

We did not pursue exports. We very much shied away from it until the Global Trade Center helped us with concerns, hooked us up with the financing, with people who could assist us harmonizing codes. Exports now account for 20 percent of sales.

At Grand Valley State University’s Van Andel Global Trade Center (VAGTC), businesses learn the ins and outs of what it means to go global. Through relevant consulting and training programs, companies gain the tools and knowledge they need.

Whether you’re thinking about opening a new market, figuring out customs compliance and international regulations, or looking for overseas suppliers, VAGTC can help.

“VAGTC and their staff provided us with the research, scenario analysis and network to the appropriate service providers to give us the confidence we needed to quote European business.”
- Monroe, Inc.

“Training provided us with the tools to sustain a downturn in the domestic economy, while positioning us for growth in the international business markets.” - Attendee

It takes many factors to succeed in today’s globalized marketplace. Let VAGTC help you.

We Shorten the Distance Between You and the World.
