With the advent of modern technology and fast emerging economic ventures, businesses have evolved to adapt to new changes. Trading is also one of the growing market ventures that continue to foster economic growth in a country. Sembawang Trading is one of the trading companies that have the potential to provide the growing market of businessmen for their supplies and product needs.

Why put up this business in Singapore?
Singapore nowadays is the world’s most successful in terms of economic growth and stability in the international market. The suggested company’s name was actually adapted from a nice place in Singapore where I first learn international commodity trading and conceptualized the idea. I first desire to put it up in Singapore because it is somehow near to where most of my contact suppliers are: China, Thailand, Vietnam and Philippines. But in the near future, we can also put-up a satellite office in selected nations. I started in Scrap Metal trading and Cavendish Banana export but I now, I am able to establish a partnership with Rice exporters in Thailand and Vietnam. In addition to my contact-partners, I occasionally facilitate deals for many suppliers-traders in the areas of electronic gadgets, bamboo supplies and handicrafts, food raw materials, crude oil, etc. Singapore is also known as the center of commodity trading in the world and has become the top priority for investments to achieve growth and income potential in the business. It has the most accessible with modern state of the art technology that investors prefer.

Just to add some more info to this.

Actually, there is another new scheme that you may want to consider if you are just starting up a business without even the $$ to proto-type your product. It is called the Innovation Commercialisation Scheme- I believe it is administered by EDB. This thing is quite new- just last year only.

Under this grant, EDB will co-share the cost of proto-typing your product up to $75K. One condition, your company need to be less than 3 years.

So if you have the idea but no money to prototype- you may want to call up EDB and ask them more about the scheme.
