The day starts with the routine
check of inbox for emails. There found one interesting inquiry for popup canopy tent. The buyer is
from Kenya as my client has emphasized that I should bring him more inquiries
from African region. Interestingly the buyer is not only from African region
but is representing a reputable multinational firm. Surprisingly he is looking
for a source in China who can print his company logo over the canopy.

The fact is not he is from
African or he wants a popup
canopy from China but the true fact is that now multinational companies have
decentralized there purchase departments. As the earlier practices focuses on
corporate purchases to gain the discounts. The practice has now changed a bit,
now if a company wants to purchase any article he can inquire about the rates
on their own and if they are getting the low price good at the same quality
they can bring the goods directly to them. This will also help to improve the
purchasing practices as the corporate purchase houses have a built up
relationship with some suppliers and they always look at those supplier for the
quotation and do less market research because many of them avoid to built
relationship with new suppliers as this will take some time.
As in this case we get this
inquiry for our pop up canopy outdoor tents from the direct source and this decentralization has helped suppliers to be
more visible to the market. In other words it has helped small enterprises to
gain more exposure.
