Governor Otter hopes for $5 billion in total Idaho exports this year

Gov. C.L. “Butch” Otter sees a rebounding climate for exports to China and anticipates that Idaho businesses could reach $5 billion in overall sales abroad this year.

That could mean a return to the export sales record set in 2008 after a decline to $3.9 billion in exports during 2009 as part of a slowdown in global trade.

The governor leaves for an 11-day trade mission to China June 4 with representatives from 18 businesses and industry groups in an effort to drum up sales from Idaho.
