Now available on website - Chinese Buyer Alerts
Most Chinese importers do not speak English, which prevents them from fully utilizing the buyer alert program. Hence, USDAChina translates every buyer alert newletter from English to Chinese and publishes them on the Chinese version of this website. This enables Chinese importers to readily browse for new products and suppliers.
