    Hey all,

    I'm very interested in the Import Export business, especially finding out it's worth a yearly $1.2 Trillion!

    I think I've grasped the concept, you either import something to your country, and sell it to shops, wholesalers?

    Or you export something out?

    Is there a way to import something in and have it delivered directly to the shop etc that wants to buy your product?

    How would I get started in this line of work?

    How can I do this with minimal investment (Letter of credit?)?
    ($1.5K max)

    Thanks

    Hey!

    * Which country you are in ?

    England

    * What kind of products are you targeting and consumer age group?

    Anything really, something which is easy to sell, but not illegal!

    * Do you have a Company and Trade Permission

    Nope? What do I do for this?

    * Where you want to Import your products from and how ?

    What do you recommened? I dont mind where I import them from, as long as they are easy to sell and legal as mentioned above.

    * Are you planning to Wholesale or Retail the products ?

    Wholesale, I don't own a shop etc and I have no intention of doing so! :)
