Through its Trade Lead service, Food Export–Midwest & Northeast facilitated a commercial connection between Dominican company Distribuidora Balear Caribeña SRL (DISBALCA) and a U.S. dairy supplier. After receiving the Trade Lead, the importer reviewed the opportunity and proceeded to acquire a product that aligned with its current needs.
The interaction enabled the buyer to establish direct communication with the supplier, successfully complete the purchase, and continue exploring additional U.S. products that may complement their portfolio. The company is also evaluating other formats and specific varieties that could meet future demand, creating room for ongoing business opportunities.
This case highlights the practical value of the Trade Lead service as an effective bridge between Caribbean importers and U.S. suppliers—facilitating direct contact, information exchange, and the development of new commercial relationships.
