DALLAS, Feb. 8, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- ChemicalInfo,
providers of the most comprehensive online databases for chemical
and pharmaceutical companies and those who do business with them,
now offers waterborne import-export information based on bills of
lading filed with U.S. Customs. The trade data is made available
through Descartes' Datamyne cloud-based global trade content and
market intelligence solutions.
ChemicalInfo has provided searchable import and export trade
data since 2014. A 2016 customer survey revealed high
interest in expanded search capabilities and other enhanced
features. Under the new licensing agreement with Descartes,
ChemicalInfo subscribers can search two full years of import and
export data covering U.S. companies and their trading partners in
over 230 markets for shipments of specific chemical products.
Subscribers can also view and download the details of individual
shipments.
This powerful combination gives ChemicalInfo subscribers access
to company-specific details of import and export activities,
including total volumes and estimated values, information essential
to making astute sourcing decisions.
"We maintain a very high customer retention rate by consistently
listening to our subscribers and quickly responding to their
needs," states Ernie Cote, the
company's CEO. "Working with Descartes is a great example of this.
Our customers wanted enhanced trade data matched by chemical
specific names instead of by broad HS categories. Descartes'
Datamyne trade content can deliver this. We're excited to work
closely with them this year to meet our customers' requests."
"We are thrilled to provide our trade data to ChemicalInfo
subscribers to help them evaluate new chemical suppliers, says
Brendan McCahill, Sr. VP of Trade
Data Content at Descartes. "Our trade information helps mitigate
supply chain risk and improve supply chain efficiency."
ChemicalInfo subscribers can access the current trade data
within the Directory of World Chemical Producers (DWCP) and
PathFinder. For more information, please visit ChemicalInfo online
