During his 2010 State of the Union address President Obama boldly proclaimed his plans to double U.S. exports by 2015.
This would in turn create an estimated 2 million American jobs. Since the launch of the National Export Initiative in 2010, U.S. exports have been steadily increasing, but by how much depends largely on what data you're looking at.
Publicly available census data is good for a high-level aggregate view of U.S. exports as a whole, but it lacks the granularity and in-depth view provided by PIERS transactional data. PIERS is the only company that gathers detailed U.S. export data at the ports for every shipment. Every day. This data is gleaned from actual Bills of Lading that is not publicly available via AMS feeds like import transactions.
