Description
The
U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Office of Trade Programs (OTP)
announced the Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) 2019 Quality Samples Program
(QSP) (2018-09869). The QSP is designed to encourage the
development and expansion of export markets for U.S. agricultural commodities
by assisting U.S. entities in providing commodity samples to potential foreign
importers to promote a better understanding and appreciation for the high
quality of U.S. agricultural commodities. QSP participants will be
responsible for procuring (or arranging for the procurement of) the commodity
samples, exporting the samples, and providing the on-site technical assistance
necessary to facilitate successful use of the samples by importers. Participants
that are funded under this announcement may seek reimbursement from FAS for the
sample purchase price and for the cost of transporting the samples domestically
to the port of export and then to the first foreign port or first point of
entry. Transportation costs from the first foreign port or first point of entry
to the final destination are not eligible for reimbursement.
