U.S. Small Business Export Activities Overview

U.S. data provides a statistical overview of export activities for small and medium-sized enterprises with fewer than 500 employees. The dataset includes only identifiable exports linked to individual companies via U.S. export declarations.

Use Cases

• Analyze export volume patterns for U.S. SMEs to identify key industry sectors.
• Profile the distribution of SME exporters by employee count categories.
• Study the geographic concentration of identifiable export activities among small businesses.

Strengths

• Data is sourced from the authoritative U.S. Department of Commerce.
• Focuses on a defined business segment: firms with fewer than 500 employees.
• Includes only verified, identifiable export transactions from official declarations.

Limitations

• The dataset excludes non-identifiable exports, potentially underrepresenting total SME export activity.
• Specific granular data like row counts, columns, and file formats are not provided in the input.
