MadeInChina.com Takes Thousands of SME to The 103rd Canton Fair

Beijing, China, April 2008  – The 103^rd China Import and Export Fair (Canton Fair), unveiled in Guangzhou city on April 15-30, 2008, has attracted more than 300,000 exporters and 200,000 importers from more than 210 countries and regions around the world. With more than 19,000 companies on display, the country’s biggest trade fair has a long history of connecting qualified Chinese sellers with keen buyers from every corner of the world and featured the most extensive and comprehensive selection of resources across various industries.

Due to RMB appreciation, global skyrocketing raw material prices and export tax rebate reduction, many Chinese enterprises engaged in importing and exporting business are inclined to choose the cost-effective B2B e-commerce platform as well as the traditional and equally effective trade shows where they can meet potential importers face-to-face.

As one of the top three B2B service providers of foreign trade, MadeinChina.com, in partnership with Ningbo Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Bureau, organized hundreds of enterprises from Ningbo city and other places to attend the Fair.

According to a spokesman from MadeInChina.com, at present, B2B ecommerce service alone cannot satisfy the rising demands in international trade between China and other countries. Statistics from a US-based business media authority shows that 85 percent of global purchasers take industrial trade journals as the major channel to find purchasing channels and suppliers; 77 percent regard international fairs as the major purchasing channel; only 63 percent find purchasing channels through B2B websites. As global industrial fairs bring out the most tangible and fastest results to foreign trade enterprises, MadeInChina.com highly recommend Chinese enterprises conducting their business marketing activities through various formats.

MadeInChina.com offers a series of integrated marketing solutions by offering its members exposure on international trade shows, trade journals and its own website, dubbed as SJI, which means “Shows+ Journals +Internet”.  MadeInChina.com’s unique SJI B2B marketing service package has won wide approval from local governments and enterprises and gained much more attention from foreign buyers at the Fair. Officials from Ningbo Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Bureau (NFTECB) visited MadeInChina.com’s booth at the Fair and gave high appraisal to this service package. With this package, the enterprises which are unable to attend the Fair also have a chance to display their products through trade journals and the online marketplace. In the past few months, MadeInChina.com has helped hundreds of overseas buyers find their long-term suppliers through its own trade journals, and online marketplaces.

Marketing staff from MadeInChina.com explained the total marketing solution package in detail: The “Shows+ Journals +Internet” service package exclusively offered by MadeInChina.Com offers all-round trade services including product promotion, global fair promotion and match-making services for its members. Members of MadeInChina.com have their own showrooms at the B2B ecommerce platform and can list their products and update the products anytime they prefer. Besides this, MadeInChina.com publishes up to 9 trade journals in which specific industry reports written by industry experts are compiled and verified enterprises will get a chance to list their products too; the company distributes these journals through direct mailing and trade shows, reaching serious buyers from the world.

Trade shows is another selling point of MadeInChina.com as it attends up to 240 trade shows a year, averaging 120 trade shows per month, for each show, the company would bring international trade experts to offer on-site consultation and match-making services. Besides the Canton Fair, the company will attend Drupa2008 in Germany and other 40 top-level international fairs around the world as well as about 200 domestic industrial fairs in 2008.

MadeInChina.com staff at the Fair invites buyers and suppliers to register at their website as the online marketplace now offers much more powerful tools such as advanced search features where users can filter supplier information through different standards. Well, for global buyers and sourcing agents, that’s good news as here is another powerful vertical search engine to watch.
