A comment from Eric Wenberg, departing ATO Director.
“ I want to offer my thanks for three wonderful years working for USDA’s Foreign Agricultural Service in Moscow. FAS has a great staff here at the Embassy and in the consulates. Russia’s potential as a market for imported agricultural goods is just beginning to be realized. I keep wondering when the growth might slow down, only to find out that the trade is increasing again. Food service, retail, and food processing sectors are all set to double in size again over the next three years. U.S. companies need to visit and establish business while the market stays in this upswing. USDA continues its work to guarantee that Russia’s import regime complies with international practice. U.S. business deserves support for its activities abroad, and I think our office has helped grow markets for U.S. fish, seafood, grapes, apples, pears, pork, poultry, almonds, wine, and spirits. New ATO Director Dana Johnson will be hard at work soon to assist you. All the best, Eric”
