We’ve updated the Financial Data section in BestFoodImporters to give you a clearer, faster way to evaluate potential buyers and prioritize the companies worth pursuing. Finding the right food importer isn’t only about discovering a company. It’s also about understanding who you’re about to do business with.

What’s new

Visual financial trends
Quickly see how a company’s earnings, revenue, total assets and taxes have developed over time, without digging through rows of raw financial information.

Detailed Key Performance Indicators
Get a structured view of important company metrics, including:

  • Revenue and earnings
  • Total assets and equity
  • Return on Sales and Return on Equity
  • Cash on hand and receivables
  • Liabilities
  • Revenue and earnings growth
  • Real estate and other available financial indicators

Greater transparency around the data
Financial values are clearly marked to help distinguish between verified figures and values based on estimates or indirect determination.

Company network & history at a glance
The updated Financial Data area also gives you access to a visual company network, allowing you to better understand relationships between the business, related companies and relevant individuals where this information is available. For larger importers, distributors and groups, this can provide useful context around ownership structures, affiliated businesses and decision-makers.

From a list of importers to better-qualified opportunities

The goal of the update is simple: help your export team answer questions such as:

Is this company large enough for us?
How has its business performed in recent years?
Does it appear financially stable?
Should our sales team prioritize this buyer over another one?

Instead of treating every importer in your target market equally, you can use the additional information available in BestFoodImporters to build a more focused prospect list.
