Quick Vote: How Did You Get Into The Import Export Business?

Posted at: Questions and Discussions | Posted on: Friday 26 January 2007 6:02 am | Poster last visit: Monday 13 April 2026 |

Throughout the years, I met many importers and exporters from many countries. Each one of them had their own story of how they became international traders. Some went to a business school and specialized in international business and others got their start from bringing few items they liked on a vacation in another country that later grew into a business.

So, how about you? How did you get into the import export business? Please tell us and share with others by voting.
