Bill > A02405

This bill establishes the New York State Product Promotion Act, which requires the commissioner of economic development to develop and implement a statewide product promotion program. The key provisions include creating an online registry that allows New York businesses that manufacture or produce products within the state to voluntarily list their company information, such as business name, address, contact details, product descriptions, and operational history. The commissioner will be authorized to charge a reasonable registration fee to cover administrative costs and will also be responsible for creating a product label with the registry's website address to help identify New York-made products. Additionally, the bill mandates that the commissioner establish a media campaign to advertise the registry and develop necessary rules and regulations for its administration. The act will take effect 180 days after becoming law, with immediate authorization for preparing implementing regulations.
