Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The National Export Exposition: For the Advancement of American Manufactures and the Extension of Export Trade These samples will completely and systematically illustrate the requirements of different foreign markets. The organization of this department will show to American manufacturers just what competition they must meet abroad. By examination of these foreign-made goods, an accurate judgment can be reached as to how far adaptations and alterations must be made in similar articles manufactured here, and to what extent American goods may find a market without modification. Congress appropriated $50,000 for the purchase in foreign markets of these samples of merchandise "of the character in favor and demand therein, together with necessary business data concerning said samples, to be displayed at said Exposition for the instruction and benefit of American manufacturers and merchants and thereby laying the foundation of a great system of National Commercial Education." Commissioners of the Exposition, aided by the consular service of the United States, are selecting these samples abroad, and a representative collection of the wares in demand all over the world has already been secured. These samples will comprise the only exhibits of foreign goods at the Exposition. They will not be exhibited by foreign manufacturers or dealers, but are being purchased outright. This department will be an education for the foreign buyers as well as the American manufacturer and will show him, by comparison, the superiority of American manufactures. Packing And Labeling. The third department is intended primarily and solely for the American manufacturer. It will comprise exhibits showing him how his goods must be packed and labeled for shipment to meet the requirements and approval of foreign buyers. It will be impossible to over-estimate the value of these exhibits to our merchants. In some countries forms of packing used in the United States entail heavy losses on foreign merchants through increased import duties. This discourages trade relations with the United States. In other countries goods must be carried great distances into the interior in carts or on mule-back and they must therefore be put up in water-proof packages of convenient size and weight.
