International Trade
In only nine years, Mobile, Alabama, is accomplishing what many cities – and states – across the country dream of… building an excellent international trade program that crosses county and state barriers. This trade program, through its many partners, is a
beacon in the southeastern United States.
As a Port City, Mobile area business and community leaders understand the importance of globalization, and for more than 300 years, have used the Gulf of Mexico to its advantage. After many years of focusing business growth efforts elsewhere, a group of business owners, the Mobile Area Chamber of Commerce and city government worked to create the Chamber’s Trade and Technology division in 1997, which directs the area’s trade program.
