The Nordic region, which includes Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Norway, is an important U.S. import/export trade area. The Nordic region with a cultured population of 30 million people and high purchasing power had a total of $11.3 billion in U.S. exports in 2015. The United States imported $26.9 billion in goods from the Nordic region in 2015, with Sweden the leading import/export trade partner.
