International Trade and Agriculture

International trade is the engine of the global economic system, worth over $11 Trillion last year. Trade in agriculture is one of the most important and complex subsets of global international trade and finance, worth an estimated $785 Billion per year.
Agricultural trade is particularly sensitive, influenced by complex international rules and regulations and fierce domestic politics. Successful companies in this market know that the addition of expertise and strategic vision, which The Cohen Group can provide, can be the difference between success and failure.

The Cohen Group's Principals have the expertise and relationships with the key political, economic and business leaders and institutions that lead to client success.

Cohen brings over 30 years of international trade promotion expertise to our clients in industries as varied as traditional and biotech agricultural producers, civil and military aircraft manufacturers, insurance, pharmaceuticals, energy and financial services. Together with Ambassador Marc Grossman, Lord Robertson, General Joseph Ralston, Robert Porter, and General Paul Kern, Secretary Cohen leads a team that has successfully operated at the highest levels of decision-making and whose insight and experience in capitals around the world is unparalleled.
