International Partnerships Help Grow Kansas
September 20, 2019
Our trading partners around the world play a big role in helping grow the Kansas economy. Increasing our state's international footprint has been a large priority for Governor Kelly and is a key component to our vision for the Department of Commerce.
Here's why:
Investment from foreign companies into Kansas has created thousands of jobs in our state, and exporting abroad allows Kansas businesses to reach new customers and create new opportunities. Our team at the Department of Commerce plays a role in generating both types of economic activity, through International Business Recruitment that encourages companies overseas to expand into Kansas and Export Services that help Kansas companies engage markets overseas and ship Kansas-made products around the world.
