Abstract: The first quarter of 2022 was a good one for Tennessee exporters. Foreign shipments soared to $9.635 billion compared to $7.851 billion in the first quarter of 2021. This was a gain of 22 percent, exceeding the very strong national growth of 18 percent. Tennessee ranked 11th among the American states in its export growth and rose to become the 15th largest exporting state. The primary reason for this growth was a handful of new exports. Last quarter the state exported $571 million of vaccines, $422 million of platinum scrap, and $160 million of palladium. In 2021, Tennessee did not ship these products at all in the first quarter.
