Illinois Small Business Development Center
Illinois Procurement Technical Assistance Center
Illinois International Trade Center
Funded in part by the U.S. Small Business Administration and the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO), the Illinois International Trade Center (ITC) at College of DuPage was established in 1989 to assist Illinois companies with their export efforts. The ITC also can provide assistance to foreign companies interested in sourcing manufactured products from the United States.
Why Consider Exporting?The international marketplace is a $4 trillion opportunity where American products can be competitive and profitable.Ninety-five percent of the world's population and two-thirds of total world purchasing power are located outside the United States.Exporting offers the opportunity to open new markets, broaden customer bases and reduce seasonal fluctuations characteristic of domestic sales. New and expanded information tools and services make it easier for firms of all sizes to enter the international marketplace.
