Where can I generally find an import and export agency company? Are there any good methods?
Solved#Export agent#
Our company has recently had the need for import and export business, but we haven't cooperated with an import and export agency company before. We don't know where to start looking. I'd like to ask everyone, where can I generally find an import and export agency company? I hope to find a reliable and professional one. It would be best if you could give some specific ways and methods so that I can have a more definite direction when looking.

To find an import and export agency company, first of all, you can search on the Internet. Like search engines such as Baidu, enter relevant keywords such as "import and export agency company", and you can get a lot of information. But pay attention to screening, visit the official websites of companies to understand their service scopes, industry experiences, etc.
Secondly, industry exhibitions are also a good way. At the exhibitions, you can directly communicate face-to-face with agency companies and intuitively feel their professionalism. You can also get the evaluations of different agency companies from peers.
In addition, industry associations can also provide help. For example, the local import and export chamber of commerce will have a list of member enterprises, among which there are no shortage of professional agency companies, and they have been screened by the association, so they are relatively reliable. You can also consult peers. The actual cooperation experience of peers can let you quickly understand the service quality and reputation of agency companies.
