Polish products on Wall Street

President Komorowski was on Wall Street this thursday promoting Polish products. Sękacz cake, fruit preserves, sweets and cold cuts were all on display as the president was trying to rally support for investments in Polish export products. At a Polish-American Investment Dialogue conference, Komorowski said that Poland "appreciates the American businessmen who took a risk back in the 1990s and invested in the new economy." He added that he hopes that further cooperation is possible today, even though the economic growth rate is no longer as big as it was then, reported Rzeczpospolita. According to the President, there are 800 companies with American capital in Poland. According to Monika Piątkowska, of the Polish Information and Foreign Investment Agency (PAIiIZ), 53 out of a total of 173 foreign investment projects in Poland this year are American. The Polish president is in New York for a meeting of the UN General Assembly.
