Is it easy for a UK company to sell products to China via the Internet?
Trading and doing business online is gaining popularity and also increasingly important in China. Whereas a lot of the Chinese businessmen and buyers are using the internet to look for business information and intelligence it is still uncommon for them to use the internet to make payments or do trading online. It is a common practice in China that business relationships are the result of intimate relations between business counterparts, however trading online can take a lot of this relationship away, which would mean it can be quite difficult to trade online with Chinese counterparts.
