Since September of this year the number of registered users from other countries has consistently exceeded the number of registered companies from Russia. The most active companies are from China, EAEU, ASEAN. In November the first company from Japan (with offices in many countries of the world) - Stanley Electric - the company with almost 100-year history specializing in development and production of the led equipment and means of lighting has registered. Several other Japanese companies and one Japanese Industry Association have expressed interest in our Platform.
Thus, currently companies from 23 countries are registered on RSTrade. In total, on November 18, 2019, 82285 companies were registered, 81971 of which are in the public domain.
CamelOne (operator of VCargo Cloud), with which our Platform is integrated, represents companies from 16 countries. By the way, our partners have recently integrated with 9 Singapore and international banks, which has significantly expanded the package of electronic banking services.
License No. 3 has been developed especially for foreign companies, which provides sufficiently broad user rights. We hope that this will be another incentive to expand the geography of the companies ' presence.
Another trend is that a number of companies willing to act as buyers now exceeds the number of companies acting as sellers. Although most companies – and it is quite natural-act as suppliers of goods and services, and as their consumers.
As before, among the main users dominate companies in the industrial and high-tech sectors, but significantly more companies working in the food sector, as well as companies providing services, both Russian and foreign.
