Making International Trade Happen(1/2)
International trade does not just happen. It is the result of developing relationships and processes to ease the flow of goods and services. This week, we spoke with David Good in Washington, D. C. He is the chief representative for Tata Sons in North America. The Indian company Tata Sons is part of the Tata Group, India's largest and best-known company. Tata wants to increase economic ties with the United States. That is what David Good's job is all about. He describes his office as an embassy for Tata Sons in Washington. Mr. Good explains Tata's products and services to American businesses and government officials. He seeks to build trust and understanding. He also advises Tata on American laws and policies and provides information on business conditions. Mr. Good learned the skills he uses every day working for the Department of State and the United States Information Agency. He spent 34 years in government before joining Tata. The Tata Group is made up of ninety-six companies that employ more than 200,000 people.
