te1.jpg (7789 bytes)Trade enquiries rising

Businesses are increasingly taking advantage of the Chamber's trade enquiries services, writes maggie fung

Over 300 trade enquiries pass through the HKGCC every month. As one of the Chamber's core services, te2.jpg (5026 bytes)many members and overseas business partners are increasingly making use of the service. A recent analysis of the Chamber's data showed that the total number of business inquiries in 2002 increased by 29 per cent over 2001's figures. Some 70 per cent of all enquiries were from te3.jpg (5058 bytes)companies looking for exporters or importers of products.

Moreover, more people are now comfortable using the Internet to do business, with every online trade enquiry registering an average of three responses. As a result, the Chamber te4.jpg (4600 bytes)has recently enhanced its online trade enquiry service, which members can try at www.chamber.org.hk/opp

Following are some of the statistics about the Chamber's Trade Enquiries service. In addition to online trade enquiries, the Chamber also offers members tailored trade enquiry alerts, upon request, as well as holds business-matching meetings.

For more information about the Chamber's Trade Enquiries service, members can contact maggie fung at mfung@chamber.org.hk, or call 2823-1248.
