Kathy Edwards Global Business Solutions ExIm Bank Solution

Did you ever want to:

1. sell on open account with assurance that you will be paid?
2. market your products into markets that you might deem too risky?
3. pledge these insured foreign receivables to your bank as collateral in a borrowing base, or for discount?
4. increase your sales by offering more attractive terms to your buyers?
5. pay for the insurance AFTER YOU SHIP, therefore you never purchase insurance you do not need?
6. sleep at night knowing that you will be paid?

If so, check out our new web page on the Export Import Bank written by Kathy Edwards of Global Business Solutions at http://www.agr.state.nc.us/markets/international/NCDACSInternationalTradeOffice.htm .

Dubai and Gulf Food – Still Buying

NCDA was at the SUSTA sponsored Gulf Food Trade Show in Dubai UAE last week. Seven North Carolina companies also participated in the event. We established contacts with distributors from Australia to the UK. There was a surprising amount of interest from Iran of all places. Even though local grocery stores were full of different kinds of hot sauces, a remarkable number of people came by our booth looking for just that.

At the show, the local ATO gave us a complete directory of distributors that import products from the US. We also have on file an excellent presentation from the ATO about the UAE and Middle East markets and what you need to know to sell there. Give us a call at 919-733-7912 ext 248 for more information.
