East-West-Bridge Inc. Expands China Trade Opportunities for North American Firms
During a recent China Trade Seminar Mr. Cortney L. Smith, President of East-West-Bridge Inc. announced plans to build a strong bridge supporting North American business expansion selling products into the China market. Citing recent market information indicating that China is actively seeking to expand it’s import of goods and services Mr. Smith said, “All my indicators are now pointing to extremely favorable circumstances for firms to expand exports into China.”
He went on to explain to the audience that for over 20 years East-West-Bridge Inc. has serviced North American companies to help them BUY, BUILD and SELL product in Greater China and Asia. East-West-Bridge customers enjoy the cost-savings provided in both manufacturing goods in addition to a slice of the rapidly growing import market in China. He noted that, most firms are lacking the necessary talent and resources to implement a successful China strategy. “Here at East West Bridge, we have learned to do three things really well:
We help our clients BUY products from Asia
We help our clients BUILD products in Asia.
We help our clients SELL their products in Asia.“
China is not immune to the ill effects of the current world economic crises. Exports have seen a dramatic drop in China overseas exports, falling 22.6 percent in April, a larger decline than economists had expected, and a worse decline than in March, when overseas shipments dropped 17.1 percent. The good news for North American companies is China’s economy shows signs of real growth, partially due to an extensive government spending program and other stimulus efforts that have been put in place since late last year. Therefore, an excellent window-of-opportunity has opened for progressive companies to traverse into China seeking market growth and new business potential. East-West-Bridge Inc. is perfectly positioned to help firms cross that bridge without obstruction.
