Mission >>

Founded in 1964, CWTA is an independent non-profit organization promoting trade between North Carolina, South Carolina, and the world by providing education and networking opportunities for our global ecosystem.

As a business-driven non-profit organization, CWTA’s mission is to promote, foster, and encourage international commerce success and expand economic growth in the Carolinas region.  We do this by:

  • Advocating the interests of businesses engaged in international trade on the federal, state, regional, and local levels;
  • Educating businesses and their employees on the resources, issues, policies, terms, and practices within international trade;
  • Promoting regional assets and opportunities for expanding inbound and outbound international commerce; and 
  • Celebrating the successes of international trade in the Carolinas region.

Leadership >>

The CWTA is governed by a Board of Directors who work in a variety of fields including accounting, banking, manufacturing, distribution and higher education. The CWTA Board is committed to expanding global trade in the Charlotte area for the benefit of the entire community.
