The Government of Saskatchewan continues to promote the province’s products to the rest of the world.
The provincial government is proceeding with plans to open three new international offices that are meant to facilitate investment and trade.
The offices will be located in Tokyo, Japan, Singapore, and New Delhi, India. They are expected to open in early 2021.
The plan is to co-locate the offices with existing Government of Canada offices, if possible.
“Saskatchewan has what the world wants and needs, but in an increasingly volatile trade environment, we need to diversify and strengthen our export markets, while continuing to showcase to the world what a resilient and great place our province is to invest,” Harrison said. “Our exports have seen significant growth to Asia in the past decade, to major markets that we need to keep and grow during our economic recovery and to achieve those aggressive targets in the Growth Plan 2030.”
Saskatchewan exports approximately 68 per cent of the products it produces. Total international merchandise exports in 2019 were valued at approximately $30 billion. Top exports include agricultural products, potash, oil and, uranium.
