There are many ways to seek foreign trade customers.

First, we could find potential foreign customers through search engines, such as Google, Yahoo, Excite, Kellyseach etc. We can search through different key words, and then we can get different results. For example, when we input “post trade offer free”, all the B2B platforms will turn up and you can post product information without any charge.

Second, we can search out more industrial websites, such as garment industry, coal industry or computer industry etc. We will find out more industry websites and there may be more linked relevant websites as well.

Third, we can try to find more destination countries’ yellow pages or global yellow pages and Directories.
Fourth, we can go to some foreign trade forum to post your information and find some information you need, such as FOB Forum.
Fifth, we can check destination countries’ Telephone information desk, which is similar to 114 in China, such telephone information desk could provide more information and it could cost huge overseas long distance call fees. In fact, you can call such telephone number in HK, if you can communicate with them through local language or English.

Sixth, we can go to the economic counselor's office of the embassy websites to get more business information.

Seventh, we can go to some company websites, who have no chance to attend foreign trade shows. They could only present better company websites and post products information. Such websites may have links to some trade show attendees’ contact information address and website address.

Eighth, we can go to B2B websites, where foreign trade companies may seek suppliers and domestic suppliers are trying to seek international buyers.

Please visit IBUonline homepage, which is an innovative B2B website. IBUonline could help international buyers and suppliers to complete foreign trade through foreign trade entrustment service.
