From Export to Investment: Polish Firms Navigate the U.S. Market

The United States represents a critical frontier for Polish businesses aiming for international growth, standing as the most significant market after the European Union. This highly competitive landscape is characterized by advanced technologies and a vast economic scale, making it an increasingly attractive destination for Polish firms seeking to expand their global reach.

Historically, Poland's economic development relied on attracting foreign capital, particularly from the U.S. However, the current economic strategy emphasizes leveraging the latest technologies and fostering business internationalization. As Poland solidifies its position among the world's top 20 economies, a new impetus is needed for its companies to venture more boldly into competitive markets like the U.S.

PFR TFI razem z PwC Polska cyklicznie bada preferencje inwestycyjne krajowych firm. Na podstawie badania z 2025 r. zauważyliśmy, że 61 proc. ankietowanych wskazało USA jako kierunek o wysokim lub bardzo wysokim potencjale, a wśród jego głównych atutów wymieniano dostęp do nowoczesnych technologii i innowacji oraz dużą skalę gospodarki.

According to a 2025 survey by PFR TFI and PwC Polska, 61% of Polish companies identified the U.S. as a market with high or very high potential. Key attractions include access to modern technologies, innovation, and the sheer size of the American economy. Despite these advantages, investing in the U.S. presents unique challenges, such as the absence of a centralized financial reporting system comparable to Poland's National Court Register (KRS), making financial assessments difficult for non-publicly traded companies.

Companies like Hynfra view their U.S. presence not just as local expansion but as a global strategic move. "Being in the USA allows us to effectively connect these demand markets with the global production and logistics system being built by Hynfra," stated Tomoho Umeda, CEO of Hynfra. He added that the U.S. currently offers one of the most attractive investment environments for large-scale energy and industrial projects, underscoring its pivotal role in global business strategy.
