Welcome Small and Medium U.S. Importers and Exporters!

Our Mandate Our mandate at Trade Bridge International (TBI) is about providing you, our small and medium exporter and importer members with choice. We define choice as the power, the right and the liberty to choose what is in the best interests of you and your organization. In other words, to make decisions based on alternatives.

A new online community of importers and exporters serving small and medium companies, TBI is an alternative source of news
and information, feedback and representation which responds to your specific needs and concerns.

TBI combines international trade expertise with technology to create alternative ways to facilitate importing and exporting.
These alternatives provide you with more flexibility and control, in addition to lowering your costs and improving your supply chain
security. For instance, we will shortly introduce TRG Direct for importers. Look for a brand new service that will give importers
access to self-filing customs entries and have the protection of a licensed, experienced customs broker should you require it.

TBI offers you the choice to use or not use a middleman for importing and exporting. For example, if you are a small importer
who uses your customs broker's import bond, TBI can show you how to get your own bond directly from a knowledgeable
source. This will save you money each time you import and increase efficiency and expedite your client services.

Trade Bridge International is owned and operated by small business people, some of whom have experience working for very
large corporations. We have backgrounds in customs bonds, ATA Carnets and carnet bonds, customs house brokerage, freight forwarding,
marine cargo insurance, logistics, importing, exporting and supply chain security. We have cultivated and maintain key
contacts in Washington D.C. with individuals who represent the specific interests of small and medium importers and exporters.
TBI acts as a conduit to representatives in Congress as well as lobbyists in Washington, D.C. who are interested in guarding and protecting your
interests and rights as importers and exporters.

Our promise

TBI is committed to providing small and medium U.S. importers and exporters with a voice in federal affairs that affect their
businesses. In addition, we promise to ensure that small and medium U.S. importers and exporters get to choose how they
access U.S. Customs services, either directly or through an intermediary.

We invite you to join our community. Explore the opportunities, news and information, expert advice, and feedback and
communication with your exporter/importer colleagues that will be available at TBI online. Most importantly, we would like to
know what your particular concerns are as a small or medium exporter/importer. TBI is your virtual small and medium
importer/exporter community. Your daily, 24-hour source of import/export news and information, communication and
representation. We look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

Leslie Levy August, Secretary General
Bruce A. Wilson, Chairman
