1.1 Export And Import In International Business




         What is Import?





         Imports are commodities and services purchased

         from another country by citizens, businesses, and

         governments. It makes no difference what the

         imports are or how they are delivered. They can

         be sent, emailed, or even carried on a plane as

         personal luggage. Imports are goods that are

         made in another country and sold to people in

         the Malaysia.




         Importer                  is            a             person,                 country,

         or        company                that          buys           products               from

         another country in order to sell them.







         Importing refers to buying goods and services

         from foreign sources and bringing them back into

         the home country. Importing is also known as

         global sourcing.
