foreign like product

French translation: produits destinés à l'exportation

English to French translations [PRO]
Marketing - Business/Commerce (general)
English term or phrase: foreign like product
When we use the term subject merchandise, we are referring to products sold to the United States. When we use the term ** foreign like product **, we are referring to products sold in your home market or exported to a country other than the United States.

I just can't find an appropriate translation into French. Thank you for help...

Describe the category of the products instead of trying to devise a translation for the coined term.
