About the company
Softwood Export Council, a nonprofit agricultural cooperative based in Portland, Oregon, operates as a federal grant recipient under the Department of Agriculture's Regional Agricultural Promotion Program (RAPP, CFDA 10.618) and the Forest Service, receiving cooperative agreements and project grants to develop and expand commercial export markets for U.S. agricultural commodities and softwood products.
Softwood Export Council's federal footprint is concentrated within the Department of Agriculture. Three of four recent awards flow from USDA's Foreign Agricultural Service under RAPP cooperative agreements, with a single project grant from the USDA Forest Service Pacific Northwest Region. The organization functions exclusively as a prime grant recipient (100% of recent awards); no contract or subcontract presence appears in the source data. The awards total $5.5 million obligated across four grants spanning 2023 through 2026.
The most recent grant, dated April 23, 2026, is a $300,000 cooperative agreement running through September 30, 2028, awarded by USDA Foreign Agricultural Service to develop, maintain, and expand commercial export markets for U.S. agricultural commodities and products. An earlier cooperative agreement from December 23, 2024, carries a completion date of September 30, 2030 and funds similar market development and export diversification activities. A June 1, 2024 cooperative agreement also supports approved market development activities. Additionally, a $300,000 project grant from the USDA Forest Service (completed November 21, 2025) funded a video showcasing the use of U.S. softwoods in architecture and remanufacturing. Within the next twenty-four months, one award reaches ultimate completion, creating a modest recompete opportunity for continued market-development work.
