OTEXA’s Export Promotion Services Help U.S. Companies Succeed

See how the U.S. Department of Commerce Office of Textiles and Apparel helped CTF Enterprises increase sales across several international markets.

CTF Enterprises is a small business in Portland, Oregon that has a vision: to revolutionize the way the world repairs zippers. FixnZip, its unique patented product, is a universal zipper slider that can repair zippers anywhere without tools or sewing.

In 2015, CTF Enterprises reached out to OTEXA to help market their product and to grow internationally. That year, the company participated for the first time in OTEXA’s Sample Booth at the Defense and Security Equipment International (DSEI) in London, UK. Since then, CTF Enterprises has participated in nearly a dozen events with OTEXA.

The company’s sales have increased exponentially since it first launched in 2015. CTF Enterprises now has more than a dozen international distributors worldwide and sells in 16 countries. With international distribution systems and partners in place, the company continues to experience strong international sales growth and brand recognition.

In spite of major challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, CTF Enterprises reported historic sales for 2019 and 2020. The company's success can be attributed to its ability to sell in multiple markets and not being reliant on a single domestic .market.otexamadeinusa@trade.gov.
