Michigan-Israel Business
Ties Focus Of Seminar
Area business leaders and
government officials from
Michigan and Israel will be on
hand to discuss the new Free
Trade Agreement (FTA) be-
tween the United States and Is-
rael during a day-long seminar
Oct. 9 at the Southfield Hilton.
The seminar is being co-
sponsored by the Metropolitan
Detroit branch of the
American-Israel Chamber of
Commerce and Industry and the
Michigan Department of Com-
merce.
Detroit financier Max M.
Fisher will be the keynote
speaker and Michigan Lieuten-
ant Governor Martha W. Grif-
fiths will provide closing re-
marks.
Organizers hope the program
will generate increased ties be-%
tween Michigan-based
businesses and Israeli com-
panies. "All Michigan companies
exporting to Israel will ulti-
mately benefit from the FTA,
but some product areas will
benefit more quickly than
others," according to Marc San-
tucci, direCtor of the Office of In-
ternational Development for the
state commerce department ,)
"Areas where the U.S. cur-
rently exports to Israel and
where there is particular poten-
tial for export growth as a direct
result of the FTA include ag-
ricultural products which will be
accorded immediate duty free
treatment," Santucci said. In
addition, consumer items and
less sophisticated industrial
products such as automotive
parts could find new or revived
markets since the tariff cuts will
be greatest in these areas, the
director feels.
The agreement will also pro-
vide new opportunities for U.S.
companies to operate plants in
Israel and sell their products in
Europe, thus eliminating duties
that must be paid on
European-bound shipment from
the U.S.
According to industry sources,
Israel represents an $8 billion
market for exporters. Currently,
American firms export approx-
imately $2 billion in civilian
goods to Israel annually, a fig-
ure which is expected to in-
crease with the implementation
of the Free Trade Agreement.

Oct. 9 seminar, contact the De-

Israel Chamber of Commerce
