Can foreign trade enterprises act as agents for export?
I'd like to know if foreign trade enterprises can act as agents for export. I have a small factory myself, producing some characteristic handicrafts. I want to sell my products abroad, but I'm not quite familiar with the export process and don't have relevant channels. I heard that foreign trade enterprises can act as agents for export. I wonder if it's true. If they can act as agents, what conditions need to be met? What is the specific process? I hope friends who are knowledgeable in this field can tell me about it.
