Green package motors are generally exported to Canada, and I think, Germany. I know that when I visited a couple of hobby shops in Montreal, Quebec, and Guelph, Ontario in the 80's, their Estes motors were in green packages in english and french (as opposed to the pink packages in the states).
I also have seen these packages even after Estes started using the stripes motif or the Cobra motif here in the States.
