Texas: the size of a country, as demanding as a client

If Texas were a country, it would be the world's eighth-largest economy. Let's look at what that market buys from Estonian producers and how to enter it.

Why Texas

Texas's economy is larger than Italy's and grows faster than the US average. Companies and people are moving there, which means constant construction, industrial investment and consumption. In our database, Texas stands out in the import of building materials, metal products and machine components.

The Port of Houston is the gateway to the Gulf of Mexico and a hub of the energy sector. European goods reach it via direct lines, with a transit time comparable to the East Coast.

What a Texan buys

The construction boom means demand for timber structures, steel parts and finishing materials. The energy sector buys machinery, valves and specialized equipment. And behind all of it is a network of wholesalers who prefer suppliers that can deliver quickly and reliably.

Texan business culture is direct: price, lead time, handshake. A small supplier often has an easier time here than in the coastal states, because decisions are made faster.
