When sourcing products or find international buyers, many businesses turn to platforms like Alibaba. It's easy, popular, and widely known.

But here's the problem:

🔍 You don't always know who you're really dealing with.

That's why more professionals are now using customs import/export data platforms like Tendata—to identify real, active buyers and suppliers based on actual shipment records.
