What does a salesman of a foreign trade company do?

Foreign trade companies do some import and export agents without import and export rights and charge agency fees. This series of trade activities can only be carried out under the premise of import and export rights, and the whole process generally goes through customs, commodity inspection, banks, safe, tax refund departments, national tax, government departments and so on.

The business scope of foreign trade companies is generally divided into goods trade, technology trade and service trade. As a self-employed or small company, it is generally not suitable to engage in technical trade, and some commodities in the import and export trade of goods, such as grain, are monopolized by some designated companies, and individuals are not allowed to operate. For furniture, home appliances and other businesses that occupy a lot of money and have complex after-sales service, it is not suitable for individuals.
