The United States – Azerbaijan Chamber of Commerce (USACC), based in Washington, D.C., has successfully completed the largest ever U.S. Trade Mission to Azerbaijan, certified by U.S. Commercial Service with support of the U.S. Embassy in Baku, Azerbaijani Embassy in Washington, DC, Azerbaijani Ministry of Economy and AzPromo.

The trade mission commenced on October 16 with a breakfast briefing by U.S. Ambassador Robert Cekuta and presentation by legal firm Dentons. The mission was completed on October 18 with a formal reception at the residence of the U.S. Ambassador.

With 18 companies and nearly 30 delegates, this U.S. Trade Mission to Azerbaijan was a response to the rapid growth of opportunities in Azerbaijan. The companies represented a broad swath of commercial sectors and engaged in over 120 business-to-business and business-to-government meetings. It provided leaders in business and government the chance to focus on strengthening economic and trade relationships between the United States and Azerbaijan, primarily by opening doors to tremendous new export opportunities for the U.S. companies and attracting new investment to Azerbaijan.

The 2017 Trade Mission to Azerbaijan offered a comprehensive program, which afforded American companies high market exposure to explore and expand trade and business opportunities as well as access to key decision makers in both private and public sectors of Azerbaijan.

Using the opportunity, we would like to thank the American companies for joining this trip and our partners for making the trade mission a success.
