The United States International Trade Commission (USITC) today determined that there is a reasonable indication that a U.S. industry is materially injured by reason of imports of white grape juice concentrate from Argentina that are allegedly subsidized by the government of Argentina and sold in the United States at less than fair value.
Chair Jason E. Kearns, Vice Chair Randolph J. Stayin, and Commissioners David S. Johanson, Rhonda K. Schmidtlein, and Amy A. Karpel voted in the affirmative.
As a result of the Commission’s affirmative determinations, the U.S. Department of Commerce will continue its investigations of imports of white grape juice concentrate from Argentina, with its preliminary countervailing duty determination due on or about June 24, 2022 and its preliminary antidumping duty determination due on or about September 7, 2022.
The Commission’s public report White Grape Juice Concentrate from Argentina (Inv. Nos. 701-TA-681 and 731-TA-1591 (Preliminary), USITC Publication 5328, May 2022) will contain the views of the Commission and information developed during the investigations.
The report will be available after June 13, 2022; when available, it may be accessed on the USITC website at: https://www.usitc.gov/commission_publications_library.
