About thG Data This publication provides a data source for Alberta's international trade, and is

intended to provide businesses with information on current export markets.

A profile is included for each country that imported over $10 million worth of

Alberta's goods in 2001 . Each profile lists the top 15 commodities Alberta exported

to that country and also compares them with Canadian exports. A summary of

export totals to all countries is included in Appendix B.

The trade commodity nomenclature used is the Harmonized Commodity Description

and Coding System (Harmonized System or HS), adopted by Statistics Canada in

1988.

Exports by geographic region, industry, and commodity are also provided in the

following sections. Industry Canada's regional groups are used. Industry groupings

are based on Statistics Canada's publication on concordance between export

commodity and industry classifications (see Appendix A). Whereas in previous

years the industry breakdowns were based on the Standard Industrial Classification

(SIC) system, in this issue the switch was made to the newer North American

Industry Classification System (NAICS). As a result, the industry estimates

presented in this issue of the International Trade Review are not fully comparable to

the estimates presented in previous issues.

For the purposes of this publication, six-digit HS codes are presented in the country

profile tables. For simplicity, some commodity descriptions accompanying these

codes have been revised from their standard format. Readers requiring the exact

content of a particular HS number are referred to the Customs Tariff Schedule of

Canada.

Statistics Canada is the main source of information for the publication. Estimates

for commercial and transportation service exports are based on special surveys

conducted by Statistics Canada. The informational captions appearing at the top

right corner of each country profile are from World Factbook 2002. The term "nes"

refers to "not elsewhere specified."

The term "exports" refers to "domestic exports," goods grown, extracted or

manufactured in Canada. The term includes goods of foreign origin, which have

been materially transformed in Canada and then re-exported.

Unfortunately, service exports cannot be included on a country specific basis since

these data are not presently available. However, these exports, including travel and

tourism, have been provided in the "Year in Review" section. Throughout the

remainder of this document, "exports" will refer strictly to merchandise exports.

Alberta exported $62.3 billion worth of goods and services to more than 170

countries in 2001 . This total includes $56.9 billion in commodity exports and

$5.5 billion in service exports. Exports of goods and services increased by

2.1% in 2001, from $61.1 billion in 2000. Alberta was one of only three

provinces with higher exports in 2001 than in 2000. Canadian exports of goodsand services fell by 2.3% in 2001 , while global exports declined by

approximately 1%, as a result of the global economic slowdown and recessions

in a number of major economies, such as the US and Japan.

Commodity Exports

The value of commodity exports increased by 2.8% from 2000 to $56.9 billion in

2001 . Of the 175 countries Alberta exported to, the top markets were the United

States, Japan and China. The United States imported $50.6 billion worth of

goods, Japan $1 .3 billion and China $886 million.

The increase in Alberta's exports was due largely to higher prices for natural

gas and gas liquids, and to a lesser degree increased volumes of natural gas,

beef, oil and gas field equipment and petrochemicals.

Growth in Alberta exports was lower than in the previous year, partly as a result

of the global economic slowdown. On a global scale, the manufacturing sector

was in a recession, with production of Information Technology products downsharply. This negatively affected Alberta's exports of telecommunication

equipment, and also led to declines or lower growth for many other

manufacturing sectors. The events of September 1 1 further aggravated the

situation, and impacted world trade in both goods and services. After peaking in

2000 with growth of more than 12%, world trade volumes declined marginally in

2001.

Regionally, Alberta's major markets were the United States, Asia and WesternEurope. The United States accounted for 88.9% of total commodity exports,

Asia 6.0% and Western Europe with 1 .7%. Exports to the US, Africa, and

especially to Eastern Europe and Central America were higher than in 2000,

while exports to Asia, Western Europe, South America, the Middle East and

Oceania declined. Exports to the United States increased by 3.8% to $50.6

billion, but fell by 4.8% to $3.4 billion for Asia, and by 9.9% to $1 .0 billion for

Western Europe.

Commodity exports can be classified into three sectors: mining and energy,

primary agriculture, and manufacturing. The mining and energy sector

accounted for the majority of exports at $36.4 billion, followed by the

manufacturing sector at $16.7 billion and primary agriculture at $3.0 billion. In

2001,exports increased for mining and energy (up 6.8%) and primary

agriculture (up 1 1 .0%), but were lower for manufacturing (down 5.9%).

Service Exports

Service exports were estimated at $5.5 billion in 2001 , a decline of 4.4% from

2000. Included in this figure are $1 .3 billion in international travel and tourism

receipts and $4.2 billion in exports of commercial and transportation services.

Tourism exports declined sharply in the wake of September 1 1

Unlike commodity exports, services cannot be included on a country specific

basis. Therefore, unless otherwise specified, the term "export" in the remainder

of this publication will refer strictly to commodities.

Market Influences

Some of the factors that influenced Alberta's 2001 trade include:

• weakest world economic growth since 1992, led by a recession in the USeconomylower economic growth in all regions

the first decline in world trade volumes since 1982

the events of September 1

1

continued weakness in Japanthe global high tech meltdown, affecting trade in telecommunication andcomputer equipment

the world-wide recession in the manufacturing industry

higher prices for natural gas and natural gas liquids

strong US demand for beef, electricity and petro-chemicals

weak prices for grains and oilseeds and for forest products

the US - Canada lumber dispute

a stronger US currency relative to the Canadian dollar

trend towards more local processing of Alberta beef cattle in the province


Alberta

Exports byIndustry andCommodity

The value of Alberta's commodity exports in 2001 was $56.9 billion, an increase

of 2.8% over 2000. The increase is due largely to stronger gas and gas liquids

prices in the first part of 2001 , and increased export volumes of natural gas,

beef, oil and gas field equipment and petro-chemicals, especially to the U.S.

The growth rate in 2001 was the second lowest of the past ten years, and wasin large part the result of the global economic slowdown. The global

manufacturing sector, and the Information Technology (IT) products industry in

particular, were in a recession in 2001

Alberta's exports are divided into three main sectors: mining, manufacturing andprimary agriculture. The mining sector accounted for $36.4 billion (64%) of

Alberta's commodity exports. This consisted primarily of natural gas and crude

petroleum at $21.6 billion and $12.6 billion, respectively. Mining exports were6.8% higher than in 2000, primarily a result of very high prices for natural gas

and gas liquids during the first part of 2001

.

The manufacturing sector accounted for $16.7 billion in exports, a decline of

5.9% from 2000. It was affected adversely by the recession in the global

manufacturing sector. Exports of computer and electronic products (mainly

telecom equipment) fell by 42%, refined petroleum products by 22% and of pulp

and paper by 16%. Strong performances were recorded by food, feed andbeverages (up 19%), machinery (up 40%) and transportation equipment (up

71%).'

Primary agricultural exports totaled $3.0 billion in 2001 , an increase of 11%.Exports of crops and livestock rose 3.4% and 35%, respectively. Major factors

for the increase in crops were higher exports of canola (up 14%) and durumwheat (up 12%), although exports of peas were down 30%. Grain exports rose

mostly as a result of increased prices, while exports of peas declined becauseof lower volumes. Live cattle and hogs exports were 39% and 30% higher,

respectively, mostly as a result of higher volumes.

1 Estimate.


The combined export value of primary agriculture, and food and beverages (agri-

foods) was $6.0 billion in 2001 . Primary agricultural exports increased by 11%to $3.0 billion, and exports of food and beverages by 19% to $3.0 billion. Theleading agri-food exports were beef products at $1 .7 billion, wheat (including

durum wheat) at $1 .2 billion, and cattle at $71 3 million.

The increase in beef exports was a result of greater demand from the United

States and especially from Mexico, the increased slaughtering capacity in

Alberta, and higher prices. The value of beef exports increased by 20%, from

$1 .4 billion to $1 .7 billion. Pork exports rose 21 % to $220 million, as prices were

up sharply. Exports of vegetable fats and oils, mostly canola oil, cake and meal,

fell by 11% to $254 million, because of a very large decline in shipments to HongKong.

Although export volumes declined, stronger prices caused a 3% increase in the

value of wheat and durum wheat exports, compared to 2000. Wheat exports to

Iran, the top importer of Alberta wheat, Iraq and Algeria were sharply lower, but

wheat imports by the US, Japan, Mexico and the Philippines increased strongly.

Live cattle exports to the US rose 39%, mainly because of higher volumes.

Exports of canola and other oilseeds increased by 12% to $466 million, because

of higher prices and volumes, especially to China.

food markets were Japan, Mexico and China at $793 million, $414 million and

$297 million, respectively.

Mining exports in 2001 were valued at $36.4 billion compared to $34.1 billion the

year before. Major factors behind this 6.8% increase were a $4.5 billion increase

in the value of natural gas, as both prices and volumes increased, and to a lesser

degree a large increase in electricity exports.

The 26% increase in the value of gas exports occurred mostly because of higher

prices (up 18%), especially in the first part of 2001,although volumes shipped

also increased (up 7%). The 15% decrease in the value of crude oil exports

occurred as a result of a combination of lower prices (down 12%) and volumes(down 4%). Petroleum gas exports rose marginally as higher prices offset lower

volumes.

Exports of coal increased by 4% on the strength of higher prices. The major coal

markets were Japan ($128 million) and South Korea ($103 million). The US also

became a major importer of Alberta coal in 2001 , with shipments more than

doubling to $61 million. California's electricity crisis turned Alberta into anexporter of electricity in the first half of 2001

.

mostly of crude petroleum, natural gas and propane. Nearly 99% was imported

by the United States, while the rest was imported primarily by Japan, South

Korea, Brazil and China.

Mining


Manufacturing Because of the manufacturing sector's global recession and the high tech

meltdown, manufactured exports fell by 5.9% to $16.7 billion, mostly because of

lower volumes. Most of the decline was volume related. Exports of

telecommunication equipment fell by more than 40% between 2000 and 2001

.

Yet, because of strong growth in the years prior to 2001 , the telecom sector's

export value is still more than double the 1 996 value. Export volumes of refined

petroleum also declined. Lower prices caused the export values of wood pulp

and most chemicals to drop. Exports of lumber, oriented strand board (o.s.b.),

beef and oil and gas field equipment increased sharply.

This sector, which accounted for 29% of all commodity exports in 2001 , has seen

its exports rise 70% since 1996.

Of the 15 industries that comprise this sector, eight increased their export value

compared to 2000. Significant gains occurred in transportation equipment (up

71%), machinery (40%), electrical products (33%), and food, feed and beverages

(19%). Exports of computer and electronic products, mostly telecom equipment,

declined 42%. Other industries with significant declines include refined

petroleum products (down 22%), paper and pulp (16%) and furniture (15%).

Because of the more than 40% decline in the value of telecom equipment

exports, computer and electronic products dropped from being Alberta's largest

sub-sector in 2000 to third largest in 2001 with exports of $2.6 billion. Thechemical industry regained the top spot with exports of $3.8 billion, followed by

food, feed and beverages with $3.0 billion. The other sub-sectors with exports in

excess of $1 billion were paper and pulp ($1 .6 billion), wood products ($1 .3

billion) and machinery ($1.3 billion).

Commodities with strong growth in 2001 include:

- boneless beef (up $261 million, or 28%)- polyethylene (up $223 million, or 33%)- parts for boring or sinking machinery (up $1 33 million, or 1 79%)- ethylene polymers (up $1 1 1 million, or 287%)- parts for wireless transmission (up $1 1 million, or 47%)- trucks with a GVW in excess of 20 tons (up $1 08 million, or 1 69%)All of these commodities were exported primarily to the United States. China

also was a large customer for Alberta's polyethylene and ethylene polymers, and

parts for boring or sinking machinery were shipped to a large number of other oil

and gas producing nations.

A total of $12.7 billion of manufactured commodities was imported by the United

States. This represents 76.3% of all manufacturing exports and a decline of $0.9

billion or 6.5% from 2000, mainly because of much lower exports of telecom

equipment and refined petroleum. The chemicals, food, feed and beverages,

transportation equipment and machinery industries had strong export growth.

The U.S.' largest three manufacturing sectors in 2001 were: chemicals ($3.0

billion), computer and electronic products ($2.3 billion), and food, feed and

beverages ($2.0 billion).

Other major markets were in Asia: Japan ($755 million), China ($581 million),

and South Korea ($322 million). Manufacturing exports to Japan were down 3%,as lower exports of wood pulp and cobalt more than offset increases for pork,

malt and alfalfa meal and pellets. Exports to China increased 17%, because of

large increases in exports of wood pulp and ethylene glycol. South Korean

imports of manufactured goods from Alberta were nearly 28% lower in 2001 than

in the previous year, because of large decreases in wood pulp, beef and styrene

imports. Taiwan is also a major market for Alberta's manufacturing sector, and

has increased its imports of telecom equipment substantially during the past

three years. Overall, food, feed and beverages, and paper and pulp were

Alberta's largest manufacturing export sectors to Asia.

Alberta's largest European Union markets for manufactured goods were: Italy

($146 million), the United Kingdom ($123 million), the Netherlands ($108 million),

and Germany ($101 million). For Italy, the U.K. and the Netherlands the largest

manufacturing import was nickel, and for Germany wood pulp.

Mexico's manufacturing imports from Alberta rose strongly by 59% to $307million, as a result of a surge in beef imports. Over the past two years, Mexico's

beef imports from Alberta have more than quadrupled to over $200 million.

Other countries that also have significantly higher imports of manufactured goods

include Russia and Norway (oil and gas field equipment), and Sweden (wood

pulp).

Overall, forestry products totaled $2.9 billion in 2001 , a drop of 10.4% whencompared to 2000. Most of the decline came from a 22% decrease in woodpulp, as a result of lower prices. Shipments of lumber were largely unchanged(-0.4%) as higher volumes offset a decline in prices. Oriented strand board

(o.s.b.) exports fell, mainly because of lower prices, and newsprint shipmentsrose on the strength of higher prices.

The primary markets for wood pulp were the United States ($554 million), Japan

($207 million) and South Korea ($172 million). Pulp exports to these three

markets fell by 18%, 29% and 24%, respectively, as a result of lower prices.

O.s.b. was primarily imported by the United States, accounting for about 95% of

the total. Even though the US increased the volumes of o.s.b. imported, lower

prices caused a decline in the value of this commodity.

The value of lumber exports fell by 0.4% in 2001 , as a result of a 31 % decline in

lumber exports to Japan. The US, which accounts for more than 90% of Alberta

lumber exports, increased lumber imports by 3.2%, as volume increases morethan offset lower prices.

Major markets for forestry products were the United States ($2.1 billion), Japan

($272 million) and South Korea ($173 million).

Chemicals The value of chemical exports increased by 7.5% to $3.8 billion, as prices andespecially volumes increased. Volumes increased significantly for polyethylene,

acyclic ethers and ethylene polymers. Commodities with higher prices include

ethylene glycol, polyvinyl chloride, styrene and urea.

Although prices were lower in 2001 , the value of polyethylene, Alberta's largest

chemical export, increased by 33% to $893 million because of higher volumes.

The value of polyethylene exports to the United States rose 72% to $780 million

as a result of higher demand, especially in Connecticut. Exports to China fell

40% to $75 million.

Exports of acyclic ethers advanced 22% to $482 million, as volumes increased

by about 28%. All of theses exports were destined for the U.S.

Styrene exports declined by 10% in 2001 to $462 million, because of lower

volumes. Shipments to the U.S., the only market for Alberta styrene in 2001 , fell

by less than one percent. Styrene was exported to South Korea, Singapore andTaiwan in 2000, but no exports were reported for 2001

all of which is sent to the US, fell 32% to $245 million, as volumes dropped by

41%.

Major markets for chemicals were the United States ($3.0 billion), China ($404

million), South Korea ($73 million) and Taiwan ($45 million).

Because of the global high tech meltdown, Alberta's exports by the computer and

electronic products industry, mostly telecom equipment, fell by 42% in 2001 to

$2.6 billion, from $4.5 billion in 2000. Despite the sharp decline in 2001

,

Alberta's exports of computer and electronic equipment have more than doubled

since 1996.

Exports of telephone apparatus fell by more than one-half to $1 .9 billion,

because of lower US demand. Wireless communication equipment exports rose

47% to $368 million, as the US increased its imports by one-half. Exports of

navigational, measuring and control apparatus (e.g. surveying instruments and

gas or smoke analysis apparatus) rose 32% to $212 million, also because of

increased US demand.

The United States accounted for $2.3 billion or 87% of Alberta's computer and

electronic product exports, with more than half going to the state of New York.

Other major destinations include Taiwan with $58 million, the UK with $32 million

and Hong Kong with $31 million.

Machinery In 2001,exports of machinery products grew strongly for the second year in a

row. Last year, they were 40% higher than in 2000 at $1 .3 billion, mostly as a

result of strong demand for oil and gas field equipment. Exports to the U.S.

increased by 29% to $752 million, mainly because of strong growth in exports of

air and gas compressors and pumps and of parts for boring and sinking

machinery. In 2001,exports of machinery to Russia rose strongly to $68 million,

while exports to Venezuela increased marginally to $43 million, both as a result

of higher sales of oil and gas field equipment.

Exports of oil and gas field machinery, mainly boring and sinking machinery and

parts thereof, increased 77% to $313 million, mostly as a result of strong demandgrowth in the US, Yemen, Venezuela and Mexico. Exports of pumps and

compressors, also used by the oil and gas sector, more than doubled to $212million, because of large gains in the US and China. Although exports to Russia

more than doubled, lower demand in the US and Venezuela resulted in exports

of other industrial machinery, much of which is also energy related, to drop by

7%.

The United States accounted for 59% of machinery exports, down from 64% in

2000, as most other major markets posted stronger growth. Besides Russia and

Venezuela, other markets also include China, Yemen, the United Kingdom,

Singapore, Norway, Mexico, the United Arab Emirates and Kazakhstan (each

importing more than $15 million).

Making up 88.9% of Alberta's exports in 2001 , the United States (US) is

Alberta's largest export market. Exports worth $50.6 billion were shipped fromthe province to the US in 2001

,up 3.8% from the year prior. Fueling much of

this growth was higher natural gas sales, which benefited from higher prices

in 2001 , and more than offset the decline in oil exports.

Canadian exports to the U.S. dropped by 2.7% in 2001 , as shipments of

motor vehicles and parts - the country's largest export sector - declined along

with forestry, computer and telecom shipments. Alberta, Nova Scotia andNew Brunswick bucked the trend in 2001

,being the only provinces to register

positive export growth to the US. By outperforming the nation in exports for

the third year in a row in 2001 , Alberta improved its share of total Canadianexports by one percentage point to 15.6%.

While the value of Alberta exports to the US grew in 2001 , the province's

shipments to the rest of the world declined by 4.6%, partly reversing last year's

gain of 19%. Lower exports of wood pulp and other products, such as computer

and telecom equipment, organic chemicals and plastics contributed mainly to

the decline, more than offsetting the increases in wheat, barley, beef and pork,

and oil and gas field equipment.

Most of Alberta's largest non-US markets reduced their imports of Alberta goods

in 2001,although there was strong export growth to NAFTA partner Mexico and

to China, one of the world's fastest growing economies.

• With Japan still mired in a recession, Alberta exports to the country

remained weak, falling 4.3% to $1.3 billion in 2001 . Nevertheless, Japan

remained Alberta's second largest market.

• Strong export growth to China continued in 2001,reaching 15% following a

near 40% upswing in 2000. With exports valued at $886 million, China wasAlberta's third largest market for the fourth straight year.

• On the strength of higher beef shipments, Mexico, another fast growing

market for Alberta goods, increased its imports by 35% to $481 million in

2001,pushing the country ahead of South Korea as Alberta's fourth largest

market.

• Following strong gains in 2000, South Korea reduced its Alberta imports by

19% to $462 million in 2001

.

• Taiwan imported $21 1 million worth of Alberta goods in 2001 , a 1 0% decline

from the year prior.

• The United Kingdom remained Alberta's seventh largest market in 2001

,

despite reducing its Alberta imports by 11% to $176 million.

• Nearly $175 million in Alberta exports were shipped to Italy in 2001 , 9% less

than in 2000.

• Exports to Iran dropped by 20% to $1 63 million in 2001 , led by lower

shipments of wheat.

• Although exports to Belgium fell by 22% to $1 1 9 million, the country

became one of Alberta's top ten markets for the first time since 1 996, mostly

because of a sharp reduction in exports to Hong Kong and Germany.

Among Alberta's top ten markets, Iran had the largest share of its Canadian

imports originating from Alberta in 2001

Alberta

Exports byNon-U.S.

Region

Alberta's export performance in 2001 varied considerably by region. Exportswere up in Eastern Europe and Central Europe and, to a lesser extent, in the

US and Africa. However, they were down in all other regions, most significantly

in Oceania and South America.

Asia, hit especially hard by the global economic slowdown, reduced its

Alberta imports by 4.8% to $3.4 billion in 2001 . Asia is Alberta's secondlargest regional market, accounting for 6.0% of the province's exports.

Western Europe was the destination for another 1 .7% or $988 million of

Alberta's exports in 2001 , a 9.9% decline from the previous year.

Central America, consisting primarily of Mexico, replaced South Americaas Alberta's fourth largest regional market in 2001 . Exports to the region

rose by 21% to $592 million - the largest increase of all regions.

Exports to South America were down by 1 7% to $435 million in 2001 , with

particularly large declines in Argentina and Chile.

The Middle East took in $426 million worth of Alberta goods in 2001 , a

level very similar to the previous year.

Exports to Africa also held fairly steady at $241 million in 2001

.

Eastern Europe continues to be one of Alberta's fastest growing regional

markets; exports to the region increased for the second straight year, by

18% to $132 million.

Lower export levels to Australia caused the value of Alberta's exports to

Oceania to fall 36% to $92.3 million.

United States Alberta was affected by lower demand south of the border in 2001 as the US

Of America economy entered a minor recession and reduced its total import volumes by

2.7%.

Overall, Alberta's exports to the United States climbed 3.8% to $50.6 billion in

2001 , a weakening from the very strong increase of 68% in 2000, but still

stronger than Alberta's export performance to the rest of the world. As a result,

a larger proportion (88.9%) of Alberta's exports went to the US last year, up

from 88.1% from the year prior. Since 1997 US bound exports have grown 88%compared to a 3.6% decline in non-US exports.

Through its rapid expansion into the US market, Alberta has been able to

increase its share of Canadian exports to the US. Driven largely by energy

sales, particularly natural gas, Alberta's market share of Canadian exports to the

US reached 15.6% in 2001, up from 14.6% in 2000 and from 11.8% in 1997.

Of all commodities shipped form Alberta, the US spends the most on natural

gas. About $21 .6 billion worth of natural gas flowed from Alberta to the US in

2001,up 27% from the year prior. Providing the largest boosts were higher

natural gas prices, rising 19% over the year and the opening of the Alliance

pipeline in December 2000, which contributed to about a 6% increase in

volumes. With the province benefiting from additional pipeline capacity and anupward trend in prices, natural gas has been the main driving force behind

Alberta's exports to the US over the last five years. In 1 998, natural gassurpassed crude oil as Alberta's top export to the US.

Lower prices and, to a lesser extent, lower volumes caused Alberta's crude oil

exports to fall by 15% in 2001,partly reversing a strong, but primarily price

driven increase of 94% in 2000. Crude oil exports to the US have grown by

nearly 50% over the last five years, a sizable increase, but lower than the 175%growth in natural gas shipments.

Of Alberta's largest exports to the US, some of the commodities that grew

strongly in 2001 were:

• Propane, up 44% to $1 .1 billion because of stronger prices and volumes.

• Polyethylene became one of Alberta's largest exports to the US after

soaring 72% to $780 million in 2001

.

• Exports of electricity, while not one of Alberta's largest shipments to the

US, grew to $204 million from $6.3 million in 2000 as California

attempted to overcome electricity shortages stemming from its recent

deregulation of the industry.

• Exports of cattle increased 39% to $713 million, while boneless beef

exports grew 22% to $968 million.

At the same time, many of Alberta's top commodity exports to the US were

falling. Affected by the global slowdown in the technology sector, exports of

telecom equipment to the US plummeted 43% to $2.3 billion. The largest

component, radio-telephone transmission equipment, fell 39% to $1 .1 billion,

while telephone switching equipment sank 71% to $423 million. Forestry

exports, most notably chemical wood pulp and oriented strand board, were also

down in 2001 ,mainly because of lower prices.

Top U.S. States In this section Alberta exports to major states in the U.S are discussed. Since

energy exports, such as crude oil and natural gas, cannot be allocated to the

state of final destination, they are not included in the state export totals.

Appendix D shows a breakdown of exports by state including energy

commodities.

Excluding energy exports, Alberta's five largest trading partners in 2001 were:

California. Exports to California were up by 1 .8% to $1 .8 billion in 2001

.

Strong gains were posted by organic chemical exports, mainly Methyl

Tertiary-Butyl Ether (MTBE), which rose 26% to $498 million, andelectricity, which reached $70 million, up from less than $1 ,000 in 2000.

However, this was offset by telecom equipment, which is typically a large

export to the state, but fell sharply from about $350 million to $80 million

in 2001 . Other major exports include beef, oriented strand board and

cattle.

Texas. The state imported $1 .3 billion worth of goods from Alberta,

down 2.3% from 2000. Styrene accounted for $318 million of the total,

making it the largest export to the region. Oil and gas field equipment,

telecom equipment, lumber and beef are other major shipments to the

state.

New York. Exports to New York fell 63% to $945 million, mainly

because of a sharp decline in telecom exports. In particular,

transmission equipment fell 57% to $367 million and switching

equipment 82% to $232 million. New York also imports large quantities

of furniture and beef from Alberta.

Washington. In 2001,exports to Washington fell 1 .4% to $851 million. A

decline in beef and cattle shipments offset the sharp increase in

electricity exports, most of which was destined to California. The top

exports to the region were cattle, beef, oriented stranded board andplastics.

Illinois increased its Alberta imports by 10% to $813 billion in 2001

,

driven mainly by higher shipments of organic chemicals, such as styrene

and ethylene glycol. Other exports to the state include furniture, plastics,

lumber and beef.

Josephine ChoiAlberta Hong KongOffice

Following a 14% increase in 2000, Alberta's exports to Asia dropped 4.8% to

$3.4 billion in 2001,mainly because of a decline in major exports such as

forestry products, which suffered from lower pulp prices, and coal. Over the last

five years, exports to the region have shrunk 8.4%.

Shipments to Japan fell 4.3% to $1 .3 billion - the lowest level since 1 993. In

addition, all the Newly Industrialized Countries (NIC's) - South Korea, HongKong, Taiwan and Singapore - reduced their imports of Alberta goods, with

declines ranging from 36% in Hong Kong to 2.4% in Taiwan. Many other large

Asian countries, including Indonesia, Malaysia and India, also imported less

from Alberta in 2001.

But not all Asian countries reduced their Alberta imports in 2001 . In the

Philippines and Thailand, Alberta exports grew by about one-quarter. In China,

where unlike most Asian countries economic growth was strong, imports from

Alberta advanced by 15% to $886 million. China has emerged as Alberta's

fastest growing market in Asia, with exports more than doubling over the last

five years. The country now ranks as the province's third largest trading partner.

Japan is Alberta's largest market in Asia, accounting for 38% of the province's

exports to the region. Alberta's sales to Japan reached $1 .3 billion in 2001 , a4.3% decline from the year prior. This compares to a 1 1% drop in Canadianexports over the same period.

In recent years, exports to Japan have been stagnant or declining, in large part

because the country has been mired in a recession since the early 1990's.

Exports are only slightly above 1993 levels and are down by one-quarter over

the last five years. In 1 997, Japan accounted for 46% of Alberta exports to

Asia; in 2001 , its share dropped to 38%. Although Japan is still Alberta's

largest market in Asia, China has recently emerged as a serious challenger for

the top spot.

Canola was Alberta's largest export to Japan, accounting for 14.8% of total

exports. Because of higher prices, which more than made up for lower

volumes, exports of this commodity grew by 5.4% to $190 million in 2001

.

Non-coniferous (hardwood) chemical wood pulp is Japan's second largest

import from Alberta, with shipments totaling $1 33 million in 2001 . Whilevolumes were unchanged, a steep drop in prices caused a 25% decline in

exports of this commodity in 2001

.

Other major exports to Japan include coal ($128 million), wheat ($107 million)

and malt ($71 million).

Alberta exports to China expanded for the fourth straight year in 2001,reaching

$886 million, a 15% increase from 2000. China ranks as Alberta's third largest

overall export market, surpassing South Korea in 1997, and Canada's fourth

largest market, behind the U.S., Japan and the U.K. Canadian exports to China

were also strong in 2001,climbing 20% during the year, led by a jump in aircraft

shipments.

Over the past five years, Alberta has seen its exports to China more than double

(+104%), with stronger canola, ethylene glycol, sulphur and wood pulp

shipments leading the way.

Ethylene glycol worth $209 million accounted for almost a quarter (23%) of

Alberta's exports to China in 2001 . Up 26% from 2000 because of higher

volumes, this commodity has been Alberta's top export to China for the last two

years.

Canola accounts for another 15% of the province's exports to China. Valued at

$129 million, canola shipments were up 27% from the previous year, due to

higher volumes. This commodity, which was not exported in 1997, represents

the fastest growing Alberta export to China over the past five years.

Exports of artificial filament, used for cigarette filters, were down by 4.5% to $90million in 2001 , while barley exports rose by 86% to $70 million, driven up by

much stronger volumes and slightly higher prices. Other major exports to China

included polyethylene ($59 million), wheat ($47 million), sulphur ($ 41 million)

and semi-chemical wood pulp ($41 million).

South Korea ranked as Alberta's fifth largest market in 2001 . This Asian Pacific

country saw its Alberta imports decline by 19% in 2001 to $462 million - the

lowest level since 1998. For Canada, where South Korea is the eighth largest

market, exports fell by 1 3%

Contributing to Alberta's 2001 decline was a price driven 21% drop in non-

coniferous (hardwood) chemical wood pulp exports, the top export to the region.

Other factors included a volume related 17% reduction in ethylene glycol

shipments and a 40% decrease in semi chemical wood pulp sales (lower

prices). Exports of these three commodities were valued at $128 million, $63million and $25 million, respectively.

Of Alberta's top exports to the South Korea, only the value of coal shipments

increased, by a substantial 30% to $103 million in 2001 , due to much higher

quantities shipped.

Alberta exports to South Korea have dropped 14% over the last five years,

largely because styrene and canola shipments fell to zero in 2001 after equaling

$68 million and $59 million, respectively, in 1997.

Based on 2001 figures, paper and pulp and mineral fuels, particularly coal,

make up about 60% of Alberta's exports to South Korea. Exports of ethylene

glycol, beef and wheat account for another 25%.

Taiwan makes up Alberta's sixth largest market. In 2001 exports to Taiwan fell

10% to $21 1 million because of much lower ethylene glycol and semi- chemical

wood pulp sales. At the same time, exports from Canada dropped 14% to $965million.

Over the last five years, Taiwan has seen its Alberta imports drop nearly one-

quarter (24%) as large declines in petrochemical shipments (e.g. ethylene

glycol) more than offset higher telecom equipment sales.

Major exports to Taiwan include petrochemicals, wood pulp, telecom equipment,

and hides and skins.

Ethylene glycol, valued at $34 million in 2001 , remains Alberta's top export to

Taiwan, although shipments of the commodity have dropped 64% over the last

five years and by 31% last year. Lower volumes are entirely responsible for

these declines, as prices increased over these periods.

Bovine hides and skins became the second largest export, with shipments

increasing 48% to $27 million. Exports of telephone sets, rising for the sixth

straight year by 30% to $26 million, comprised the third largest commodity,

followed by coniferous (softwood) chemical wood pulp at $18 million, up 1.8%from 2000.

Affected by lower exports, higher oil prices and weaker consumer demand,economic growth slowed across Western Europe in 2001 . Germany was the

first European country to enter a recession, followed by a number of smaller

countries such as Finland, Belgium and Denmark. While many other countries

experienced an economic slowdown, they managed to escape a recession.

Alberta exports to the region totaled $176 million in 2001 , a drop of 9.9% from

2000 levels. The latest decline follows a 13% increase in 2000, when Alberta

exports benefited from a jump in wood pulp and nickel exports. In 2001 , it wasthe reverse: falling prices and volumes brought down wood pulp shipments

while nickel exports suffered from lower prices.

Among the major Western European markets, only the Netherlands spent moreon Alberta goods in 2001 compared to 2000. Exports to the United Kingdom,

Alberta's largest market in the region, dropped 11%, while those to Italy,

Belgium, Germany and France slipped 9%, 22%, 29% and 11%, respectively.

Over the last five years, Alberta exports to Western Europe have fallen by a

modest 2.8%, due mainly to especially large declines in Germany and the

Netherlands. The extent of the drop was limited by stronger exports to the

United Kingdom, Italy, Belgium and especially to France, where exports nearly

doubled.

Alberta Exports to Western Europe, 2001

Total Exports: $987.8 Million

United Kingdom The u.K. is Alberta's largest market in Western Europe and seventh largest

overall. In 2001, the province shipped $176.3 million worth of goods to the U.K.,

9.2% less than in 2000 - mainly because of a reduction in telecom equipment

and wood pulp shipments. The U.K ranks as Canada's third largest market, with

exports totaling $4.7 billion in 2001 - down 13% from the previous year.

Influenced by a surge in nickel exports, the total value of shipments to the U.K.

from Alberta has risen by 6.3% over the last five years.

Alberta's top exports to the U.K. in 2001 include nickel ($33 million), wheat ($31

million), coal ($16 million) and engine and motor parts ($7.5 million). Together,

these commodities accounted for nearly half of the province's exports to the

U.K. Other major categories, based on broader product groupings, include

telecom equipment, machinery and wood pulp.

Nickel emerged as Alberta's largest export to the U.K in 2001,increasing 66%

because of higher volumes and replacing wheat in the top spot. Wheat exports

were slightly higher (+4.8%), as were exports of coal (+8.7%). But these gains

were more than offset by sharp reductions in semi chemical wood pulp andtelecom equipment sales, down 79% and 51% respectively.

-26-


Italy In 2001, Alberta's exports to Italy dropped 9.1% to $175 million. Making up 18%of exports to the region, Italy is Alberta's eighth largest market. Canadianexports to the country fell by a slightly lower 7.6% during the same period.

Although Alberta usually exports proportionally less to Western Europe than the

rest of Canada does, Italy is an exception: in 2001 , 11% of Canadian exports to

this country originated from Alberta - the highest share of all major markets in

the region.

Despite 2001 's decline, Alberta exports to Italy are up 11% over the last five

years, a result of higher exports of turbo propellers and nickel.

Turbo propellers have recently become Alberta's second largest export to Italy.

Before 2000 no propellers were being sent to Italy from Alberta, but in 2001 , $28million worth of the commodity was sold, up from $6.7 million in 2000.

Nickel exports remained the highest valued shipment to Italy, despite declining

40% in 2001 , a result of much lower volumes. In that year, the commodity

accounted for 28% of Alberta exports to Italy. Up until 2001 , nickel was a fast

growing export to Italy, with sales growing for four straight years.

Other significant exports to Italy in 2001 include non-coniferous (hardwood)

chemical wood pulp at $27 million, and durum wheat, which nearly tripled in

value to $17 million from the previous year.

Belgium Alberta shipments to Belgium declined 22% in 2001 , but the country surpassed

Germany to become the province's third largest market in the region and tenth

largest overall. With shipments totaling $1 19 million in 2001, Belgium received

12% of the province's exports to Western Europe. Nationally, exports to Belgium

fell by 12%.

Driven primarily by stronger nickel and wood pulp shipments, Alberta exports to

Belgium have strengthened by 7% since 1997.

As with many other countries in the region, nickel is Alberta's top export to

Belgium. Valued at $26 million in 2001, nickel sales have nearly doubled over

the last five years, although they dropped 28% during 2001 because of lower

prices.

Lower prices dragged down non-coniferous (hardwood) chemical wood pulp

exports by 34% to $25 million in 2001 , but exports of this commodity have also

nearly doubled over the last five years.

Cobalt ($12 million), artificial filament tow ($8 million) and dried peas ($7 million)

were other major exports to the country in 2001

.

The Central American region, which includes the Caribbean and NAFTA partner

Mexico, suffered severely from the US slowdown, as both exports andremittance payments to the region plunged. Following an extended period of

strong economic growth, Mexico entered a recession in 2001 , with output

declining 0.3%. Reduced tourism spending, particularly in the Caribbean, also

plagued the region in the latter part of the year.

Benefiting entirely from the continued strength in Mexico, Alberta exports to

Central America advanced 21% to $592 million in 2001 , the highest growth rate

of all regions.

Over the last five years exports to this region have climbed 76%, as very strong

export growth to Mexico more than made up for lower exports to the rest of the

region.

Mexico continued to increase its imports of Alberta goods in 2001,despite the

country's economic slowdown and its overall reduction in imports. Alberta

exports to the country climbed sharply to $481 .5 million, as the value of shipped

Alberta Exports to Central America, 2001

Total Exports: $592.1 million

Mexico Mexico is Alberta's largest market in Central America, accounting for 81% of

exports to the region in 2001 . Along with China, it is the province's fastest

growing major markets. Exports reached $481 million, an increase of 36% from

2000, compared to a 21% rise in Canadian sales.

Exports have more than doubled (+116%) over the last five years and morethan tripled since 1994, when the North American Free Trade Agreement(NAFTA) gave Alberta better access to Mexican markets.

Beef, especially boneless beef, has been the key driver behind Alberta's strong

export performance to Mexico. Only five years ago, beef sales accounted for

just 2.4% of the province's exports to Mexico. Today, they amount to almost half

of the shipments to the country. Boneless beef exports alone shot up to $1 78million in 2001 , an 82% increase from the previous year and up substantially

from $0.4 million in 1997.

Canola and wheat are the second and third largest commodities sent to Mexico,

collectively accounting for 34% of Alberta exports. Higher prices pushed canola

exports up 10% to $84 million, while wheat shipments rose 22% to $81 million

because of both higher prices and quantities.

Cuba Cuba accounts for the second largest share of Alberta exports to the region, at

9.8% in 2001 . For the third straight year, exports to Cuba grew, by 4.6% to

$57.9 million, compared to a 13% climb in national exports. However, over the

last five years, provincial sales to the country have dropped by 13%, owing to

gradually declining sulphur and dried pea exports.

Major exports to Cuba include oil and gas field equipment, sulphur, wheat andpeas - together accounting for about two-thirds of the total in 2001

.

Oil and gas field equipment made up the largest component of exports to Cuba.

In particular, parts for boring or sinking machinery reached $4.4 million, up from

$1.3 million in 2000.

Sulphur exports, which suffered a 33% price related decline, totaled $12 million.

Wheat was largely unchanged at $8.5 million, while shipments of dried peasrebounded sharply, more than doubling to $4.5 million.

South World trade with South America in 2001 was highly affected by instabilities in

America the re9'on 'most notaD ly in Argentina, where a forced currency devaluation

prompted an economic crisis. Other countries in the region experienced

slowdowns, including Chile, which felt some spillover affects from Argentina,

and Brazil, where a power shortage limited industrial production.

Of all regions, South America saw the largest decline in Alberta's exports in

2001,moving down one spot to become Alberta's fifth largest regional market.

Overall exports to the region were down 17% to $435 million in 2001,mainly

because of declines in three countries: In Argentina exports plummeted 72%,while those to Chile and Brazil dropped by 47% and 21%, respectively.

Despite 2001 's decline, Alberta exports to South America remained almost

unchanged (+1 .8%) over the last five years.

After increasing its Alberta imports for the fifth consecutive year, Venezuelabecame the province's top market in South America in 2001 . The country leads

with 27% of Alberta's regional exports, followed by Brazil (22%), Colombia

(15%) and Chile (14%).

Major exports to the region include oil and gas field equipment, sulphur, coal

and wheat.

Alberta Exports to South America, 2001

Brazil Colombia

Total Exports: $434.8 million

Venezuela Alberta's exports to Venezuela reached $1 1 7 million in 2001 , a 5.4% increase

from the year prior, compared to 12% growth in Canadian exports. Venezuela,

one of the few major South American countries to increase its Alberta imports,

surpassed Brazil to become Alberta's largest market in the region.

Robust growth in oil and gas field equipment exports coupled with strength in

wheat sales, has made Venezuela one of Alberta's fastest growing markets in

South America, with exports surging 132% over the last five years.

Just over half (52%) of Alberta exports to the country in 2001 consisted of

wheat, including durum. Wheat sales grew 14% to $39 million mainly becauseof higher prices, while durum wheat exports rose 21% to $21 million for the

same reason. Both these commodities have seen significant increases over the

last five years, particularly durum wheat, which has more than doubled in value

over this period.

Because Venezuela is a heavy producer of oil, equipment for the oil and gasfields, such as parts for boring or sinking machinery, pumps and compressorsand machines with individual functions, make up over one-quarter of Alberta's

exports to the country. Exports of these commodities have increased very

strongly over the last five years.

-32-


Brazil Exports to Brazil dropped 21% to $94 million in 2001 because of substantially

lower shipments of sulphur and coal. Canadian exports fell less dramatically, by

9.7% during the same year. As a result of the 2001 decline, Brazil moved downone spot to become Alberta's second largest market in South America, with

22% of the region's imports.

Sulphur and coal together make up 55% of the province's exports to the

country. In 2001,sulphur exports fell 36% to $30 million mostly because of

lower volumes, while coal dropped 34% to $22 million for the same reason.

Over the last five years, sulphur shipments have been trending downwards,

while coal exports have been climbing.

In 2001 , oil and gas field and telecom equipment surfaced as major exports to

Brazil. In particular, parts for boring or sinking machinery, rose to $5.6 million in

2001,up sharply from almost nothing in 2000. Telecom equipment reached

over $9 million, an increase of about one-half from the previous year.

Alberta also sent $7.2 million in aircraft parts to Brazil in 2001 , a commodity not

imported in the previous year.

-33-


Middle East The Middle Eastern economy slowed only marginally in 2001 , as strong crude

oil prices provided a major boost in the face of declining oil production,

weakening European markets and plunging tourism revenues.

In the Middle East overall exports were almost unchanged (+0.1%) from 2000 at

$426 million. Of this total, about one-half consisted of wheat shipments.

At the country level, exports to Egypt more than tripled to $53 million because of

a jump in wheat and coal shipments. In Sudan, exports surged more than six-

fold, lifted by much stronger laboratory equipment and wheat exports. As a

result, these countries became Alberta's second and fourth largest markets in

the region, respectively.

These gains were large enough to offset lower exports to Alberta's largest

market in the region - Iran. Mainly because of a steep drop in wheat prices, Iran

spent 20% less on Alberta goods in 2001 , but still accounted for 38% of the

province's exports to the region. Egypt was responsible for another 1 3% of the

Middle East's imports from Alberta in 2001, followed by the United Arab

Emirates at 1 1 % and Sudan at 8%.

Iran Iran remained Alberta's ninth largest overall market in 2001 , with exports valued

at $163 million. The province saw its Iranian sales drop 20%, mainly because of

lower quantities of wheat shipped. By comparison, Canada's exports fell by aneven larger rate of 27%. Of Alberta's top ten markets, Iran has the highest

proportion of its Canadian imports coming from Alberta, at 34% in 2001

.

Since 1997, a particularly strong year because of higher than normal shipments

of wheat, Alberta exports to Iran have fallen 22%.

Wheat (non-durum) - valued at $133 million in 2001 - accounted for 81% of

exports to Iran, down from 94% in 2000. Exports of the commodity have

dropped 28% in 2001 because of weaker volumes.

Other grains, although much less significant in value, were also exported to Iran

in 2001 . These included durum wheat, rising nearly three-fold to $7.6 million

during the year, and barley, up 14% to $4.8 million.

Oil and gas field equipment exports made up the last major component of

commodities sent to Iran. In particular, shipments of parts for boring or sinking

machinery reached $5.8 million, up strongly from $0.4 million in 2000.

- 35 -


Africa Africa escaped the global slowdown almost unscathed in 2001 . The region

maintained normal growth levels as higher crude oil prices and strong

agricultural production made up for lower prices for such commodities as coffee,

cotton and cocoa.

After rebounding slightly in 2000, Alberta exports to Africa - the province's third

smallest regional market- were largely unchanged in 2001 at $241 million.

As in the Middle East, a large share (about two-thirds) of Alberta's shipments to

Africa comes in the form of wheat, divided in roughly equal amounts between

durum and non-durum.

Largely because of a sharp decline in sulpher exports, Africa has reduced its

purchases of Alberta goods by 28% over the last five years.

A drop in durum wheat sales caused exports to Algeria to fall 33% to $57 million

in 2001,and allowed Morocco to become Alberta's largest market in the region

for the first time since 1 996, with exports totaling $58 million. Combined, thesetwo countries made up just under one-half of Alberta's exports to Africa.

Nigeria and South Africa were the third and fourth largest markets, each with

about a 12% share in the province's African exports.

Morocco Morocco was the largest market in the region for Alberta goods in 2001 , with

exports reaching $58 million - a 9.6% increase from the previous year.

Nationally, sales to the country advanced 5.4%.

Over the last five years, exports to Morocco dropped 40%, as climbing wheat

sales could not make up for falling sulphur shipments.

Durum wheat makes up the majority of Alberta exports to Morocco. In 2001

,

56% or $32 million of the province's sales to the country was comprised of

durum wheat, up 13% from the year prior. Exports of this commodity has

steadily risen over the last five years and more than tripled over this period.

Almost all the remaining exports to Morocco involve wheat (non-durum) and

sulphur, valued at $16 million and $8 million, respectively. Sulphur declined for

the fifth straight year in 2001(by 16%) while non-durum wheat gained 38%.

- 37-


Algeria Algeria took in 33% less in imports from Alberta in 2001 than it did in 2000, a

sharp decline that resulted from lower quantities of durum wheat shipped.

Canadian exports dropped by 40% over the same period.

At $56.8 million, exports to Algeria were valued at almost half their 1997 levels,

mainly because large amounts of non-durum wheat were exported five years

ago, but not in 2001

.

Similar to Morocco, Alberta's exports to Algeria depend almost entirely on

wheat. Three-quarters of the shipments to the country in 2001 were comprised

of durum wheat valued at $43 million. Because of a decline in volumes, exports

of the commodity plunged 43% in 2001,putting its value at 36% below 1997

levels.

Shipments of boring or sinking machinery for the oil and gas fields were valued

at $6.4 million, up strongly from $0.3 million the previous year.

Eastern Strong productivity gains and market reforms have helped trigger Eastern

EurODG Europe's strong economic performance in recent years. While the region's^ economic growth slowed slightly in 2001 because of weak western European

markets, consumer and investment spending continued to post sizeable gains.

The province's exports to Eastern Europe powered ahead for the secondstraight year, climbing 18% to $132 million in 2001. As a result of this growth,

Eastern Europe was removed from its position as Alberta's smallest regional

market for the first time since 1 993.

Eastern Europe has been Alberta's fastest growing regional market over the last

five years (exports have nearly doubled), thanks to a surge in equipment sales,

mostly oil and gas related.

Russia is the major market in the region and the major force behind Alberta's

recent expansion in the region. The country accounts for 68% of Alberta exports

followed by Kazakhstan with 15% and Poland at 6%.

Russia Alberta exports to Russia expanded 45% to $90 million in 2001,comparable to

the 43% increase in Canadian exports. Russia imported just over two-thirds

(68%) of all goods sent from Alberta to Eastern Europe.

Russia has doubled its imports of Alberta goods over the last five years, as a

result of its growing purchases of oil and gas field equipment.

Machinery - most of which is oil and gas field equipment - is the largest category

of shipments to the country. In 2001,strong gains were posted by the following

top commodities: machines with individual functions valued at $20 million (up

from $3.5 million), parts for machinery for the treatment of material involving a

change in temperature totaling $14 million (up from $1 million), and parts for

lifting and handling equipment reaching $9 million (not exported in 2000).

Accounting for another 10% of exports, purchases of special purpose vehicles

reached $9 million in 2001, the first significant amount since 1993.

Beef and pork ($4.2 million), telecom equipment ( about $3 million), andprefabricated buildings ($1 .5 million) were the next largest exports to Russia in

2001.

Oceania Australia, New Zealand and other South Pacific countries makes up Oceania.The smallest market of all regions, Oceania imported $92 million worth of

Alberta goods in 2001 - a drop of 36% from $145 million in 2000. Thisrepresents the largest one-year decline over the last ten years and was broughton by a 47% plunge in exports to Australia.

Alberta relies almost solely on Australia and New Zealand for exports.

Combined, they make up 97% of all goods sent to the region. In 2001 , NewZealand increased its share of regional exports to 30%, while Australia's sharefell to two-thirds.

Because of declining sales to Australia, Alberta has seen its shipments to

Oceania shrink by 47% over the last five years.

Alberta Exports to Oceania, 2001


Australia Despite a sharp reduction in 2001 exports, Australia remained Alberta's largest

market in Oceania, making up two-thirds of sales to the region. In 2001,exports

were down by 47% from the previous year - larger than the 16% decline in

national exports - and by the same rate over the last five years.

Fueling most of the 2001 decline, was urea (fertilizer) and sulphur, which both

dropped close to zero after being two of the largest exports in 2000. Telecomshipments also played a role, tumbling nearly 40% during the year.

In 2001,exports of telecom equipment - including parts for telephone line

systems, switching equipment and telephones - had a value of $24 million and

accounted for 40% of the exports. Oil and gas field equipment, primarily pumpsand compressors valued at $5 million, made up the next largest category of

exports.

Other top exports were plastics ($3.6 million), artificial filament tow for cigarette

filters ($3.5 million), and frozen meat ($1.5)
