Revenue of International Small Businesses on the Rise
A new FedEx (NYSE:FDX) survey has found 65 percent of small businesses trading internationally see revenue growth versus 46 percent of businesses that haven’t gone international yet.
The newly launched FedEx Trade Index also revealed that businesses trading globally are 20 percent more likely to say they are hiring more employees.
Good for Business, Good for the Economy
A large number of small businesses (71 percent) also see increasing global trade as improving the U.S. economy.
“Even during this time of intense debate about the benefits of trade, these results indicate American small business leaders see increasing global trade as a way to help the U.S. economy as a whole, as well as their businesses,” said Raj Subramaniam, executive vice president of FedEx Services.
