Our business direction and philosophy has consistently revolved around the development of new sources of supply from chemical producers in the Far East, with a strong emphasis in China, Taiwan, Korea and India. The establishment of our four offices in China, which have been placed in strategically located geographical areas, has given us the ability to strengthen our relationships with existing suppliers, enable us to have daily personal contact with these suppliers, and creates an environment which allows us to better develop new sources for products. Sales markets for these chemical raw materials have been developed throughout Asia, Europe, Latin America, North America and South America.
