Connecticut imported a total of $22.74 billion worth of goods in 2024, with Canada being the largest importer at $5.74 billion, followed by Mexico at $3.6 billion and China at $1.34 billion. The top goods imported from these countries included aircraft, spacecraft, parts for them, silver, precious metals and stones, as well as petroleum and other energy sources. This is not surprising given Connecticut’s status as an aviation and aerospace manufacturing hub.
The ongoing trade war with these countries has raised concerns about potential impacts on the economy and consumer wallets. As tariffs continue to be implemented, it remains to be seen how this will affect imports and prices in Connecticut. While Connecticut’s imports are just a small part of the national picture, it is important to monitor the situation and stay informed about any potential changes that could impact the state’s economy.
