Unprecedented boom

German exports to the USA break record mark

While Germany's economy is mired in the depths of crisis due to the Ukraine war and rising energy costs, trade with our most important partner is booming. Never before have German companies exported goods worth 100 billion euros to a single country in such a short time.

Despite war worries and rising borrowing costs, German business with its most important customer, the USA, is doing better than ever before. As early as August, exports of goods to the United States exceeded the 100 billion euro mark: never before has it been cracked so early in the export business with a single country. Overall, German U.S. exports grew by 27.2 percent year-on-year to 100.2 billion euros in the first eight months, according to preliminary data from the Federal Statistical Office.
