Foreign trade enterprises can monitor supplier changes in target countries or regions through customs data.

When new suppliers continue to join the industry and market, it indicates that the industry and market may have high profits and demand, thereby continuously attracting new participants.

According to the customs data system query, it is possible to have a clear understanding of where the customer's procurement area is and whether the customer is concerned about the quality or price of the product, which will help with future transactions. Then use the customer's usual procurement time to analyze the customer's next procurement time. In short, identify the purchasing patterns of buyers. Recommend company products to buyers at the appropriate time to increase hit rates.

4. Consolidate existing customers:

In addition to cooperating with you, the customer may also have other suppliers. By using customs data, foreign trade enterprises can track and analyze the transaction records of existing customers, and understand their supply sources and situations beyond their own enterprises.

5. Deeply explore contacts and obtain contact information for foreign buyers:

After passing customs data, many sales will directly send emails, but it is difficult to obtain results if the sending email is not the corresponding person.
