The export opportunities for San Diego sporting goods companies are growing as the industry grows worldwide. Emerging overseas markets with impressive growth in the sporting goods industry over the past few years, and the demand for the products produced in the San Diego region, are strong.
Two areas of the world which generally have good potential for the wide variety of local products are Latin America and the Middle East. Particularly in those countries with whom the United States has a Free Trade Agreement (i.e. Central America, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Panama, Bahrain, Israel, Jordan), the opportunities are enormous.
Liberalized trade regulations and reduced, or completely eliminated, tariffs have made these target markets very attractive to the typically smaller companies that populate the San Diego region.
