List of world trade centers

__NOTOC__

World trade centers (usually abbreviated WTCs) arose in Japan and the United States in the 1970s. A world trade center puts together all the services associated with global commerce under one roof, a kind of supermarket or shopping mall providing networking access between corporations and governments.

"A world trade center in any city is a business shopping center, complementing and supporting the existing services of private and government agencies", explains WTCA President, Guy F. Tozzoli.
