Trading Science has signed an agreement with Cansun Technology to market its services and solutions in China. Cansun Technology is a new venture using expertise in the Chinese market from Cansun pulp trading specialists and supply chain experts who have worked in the paper industry in Asia for many years. Cansun employees have extensive knowledge of the Chinese market and the benefits that supply chain planning and optimisation can bring to major companies.

China will overtake the USA as the largest paper producing country in the world.  But although the production equipment is very modern, current business practices lag behind world class standards, especially in the planning area. Chinese managers recognise that supply chain planning is an area that they need to invest in shortly.
