New Jersey International Trade Awards: A New Jersey District Export Council program

Early Bird rate ends March 31

The New Jersey District Export Council (NJDEC) is proud to recognize excellence among New Jersey’s leading exporters in the four categories of Exporter of the Year, Service Exporter, New Exporter and Minority Owned/Diverse Exporter.

The goal of the New Jersey International Trade Awards (NJITA) is to recognize and honor New Jersey companies that have worked diligently to expand their exporting efforts. They may have accomplished this by penetrating new markets or by increasing their presence in existing markets — or by embracing both growth strategies! By doing so, they have contributed to the creation of new jobs while subsequently improving and enhancing the New Jersey economic landscape.

Join us for ample networking opportunities and to hear insightful panel discussions with our award winners.

Register today!

Date: May 17, 2023
Time: 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.
Location: Galloping Hill Golf Course, 3 Golf Drive, Kenilworth, NJ 07033
