What Is Global Trade Intelligence? How It Benefits Your Trade Decision?
Global trade intelligence analyzes customs records, Bills of Lading, and HS codes to show how goods move across markets and who is actively trading.
Back in October 2020, Trade Intelligence marked a significant achievement: charting our 5 billionth global trade record. That number cemented our international position as a leading import export database in the world. Today, we are thrilled to announce that we have surged past that milestone, validating and processing over 8 billion comprehensive foreign trade records database.
This 3-billion-record jump wasn’t just about collecting more data; it was about ensuring the reliability and depth of every supply chain record during a period of relentless volatility. For businesses seeking a definitive, future-proof trade record database, this scale delivers the highest level of market visibility and risk management capability.
Not all trade flow records are created equal. Our 8 billion data points are powerful because they integrate and distinguish between 4 crucial types of import export database intelligence:
| Pillar | Focus | Strategic Value |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Customs Declaration Data (Bill of Lading Data) | High-fidelity global customs trade database and Bill of Lading records that often include granular details like shipper names, consignees, product descriptions, and container information. | Crucial for competitor analysis and verifying buyer-supplier import export past records. |
| 2. Shipping Data (Non-customs) | Near-real-time supply chain record for logistics management, vessel, and non-customs freight tracking. | Essential for optimizing logistics routes and ports, and anticipating congestion. |
| 3. Prospect Data | B2B buyer & supplier directory with contact and trade profile info. | Powers sales teams with validated leads for global market penetration. |
| 4. Market Insights | Multi-tier, customizable analytics (Product, HS code, Company, BoL). | Provides highly versatile, drill-down supply chain intelligence for strategic decision-making. |
