Market Overview
Belgium is a small country, roughly the size of Maryland, with a population of 10 million and a per capita income near $20,000. Most of the population lives in or around urban centers, and only 2 percent is engaged in farming. The port and inland transport systems are highly developed. The business community is internationally oriented, and all services that potential exporters might need are readily available.
Three official languages are spoken: Flemish (Dutch) dominates in the northern half of the country; French is spoken mainly in the southern half, called Wallonia; and German is used in a small area on Belgium's eastern border. ...
