Defining
the Import Export Business
The
IMEX Business Defined
What
is Import Export?
If
you look up the term Import
in any dictionary you probably see this definition:
"to bring in (merchandise, commodities,
workers, etc.) from a foreign country for use, sale,
processing, reexport, or services."
The
definition for Export
is similar: "to locate, ship, transport,
(merchandise, commodities, workers, etc.) to other
countries or places for sale, exchange, etc."
So,
at first look the Import Export business appears to
be simple; "to locate, ship,
transport, merchandise, commodities, workers, etc."
and ship those goods and services from one market
to another. Well, that seems easy enough.
Of
course there are a lot of steps between the simple
Import Export dictionary definition that are necessary
to complete even the most basic transaction and get
paid for your efforts.
The
truth is that while the Import Export business is
profitable it is also complicated. Just the nature
of our business requires communication and agreement
between business people all over the world, manufacturers,
suppliers, buyers, agents, shippers, etc.
