With the firm purpose of bringing international trade opportunities closer to more entrepreneurs and companies in Guanajuato, the Coordinator for the Promotion of Foreign Trade (COFOCE), and the State Institute of Training (IECA) Leon, carried out a new edition of the Export Days, an initiative promoted by the Government of the People to strengthen economic growth from a human and close approach.

More than 30 companies from Guanajuato participated in the two-day training event, representing a wide variety of sectors such as textiles, agrobusiness, agriculture, food, handicrafts, metalwork, automotive, leather goods, and footwear, among other. This gathering allowed entrepreneurs to learn firsthand about the services, tools, and support that COFOCE offers to start or strengthen their export processes.

“For exporting, it is very important that you know the essentials; it is not difficult, it is about getting used to it, and for that you have an institution that works for you to be able to support you; the truth is that there are business opportunities, there are companies that look for Mexican products, for quality, logistics, flavor etcetera,” said Asael Colunga, director of the internationalization and sectoral addresses area of COFOCE.

The main objective of the Export Days is to bring information and support directly to municipalities, allowing more people to discover the real possibility of exporting their products to other countries. Under the vision of the People’s Government, this strategy seeks to pave the way for local businesses to grow, strengthen, and bring the quality of Guanajuatense products to new international markets.
“That’s why we have COFOCE, the only institution of its kind in the country that promotes the export of Guanajuatense products to more than 140 countries, making it possible that products from Guanajuato are all over the world, representing our state,” said Salomon Ceballos Ochoa, General Director of IECA.

Participants learned about the programs and initiatives that COFOCE offers to support them in the internationalization process.
“I have learned a great deal, even though we are just starting out, sometimes we think we can’t export, but here they have broadened our perspective, showing us the steps to follow to carry out a proper export,” said Yadira Venegas Lara, a businesswoman from Amenda.


COFOCE reaffirmed its mission to be a bridge between Guanajuato companies and the global market, strengthening the State’s competitiveness and promoting the export of more and more local products to various countries, carrying the name of Guanajuato.
