Supplier Export Program

The Supplier Export Program, part of California STEP, brings representatives from major international manufacturers in the Southern California/Baja California region to a series of of events organized in conjunction with the Otay Mesa Chamber of Commerce called Mexport Supplier’s Forums.

The goal of the program is to help small and medium-sized businesses increase their sales through international trade by matching them with the manufacturers that are looking to source services, components, raw materials, and other commodities regionally.

Below is a list of commodities currently needed by these manufacturers. (Use the tabs at the bottom of the table to navigate between companies.)
