No section of British Industry is so well equipped and able to meet the needs of over
seas buyers as the Drug and Chemical Trades and the many industries associated therewith.
Manufacturers in these trades have greatly enhanced their reputation for quality
products during and since the War, and tremendous strides have been made in many
directions during the last few years.
Buying for “ Drug Trade ” requirements is a highly specialised job, and information
about new developments, market trends and novel lines is a prime essential.
Specialised buying needs specialised information such as is found in the only British
monthly publication published exclusively for overseas buyers of these products.
The Chemist and Druggist EXPORT REVIEW provides a monthly resume of concise,
accurate and essential information about these markets. Month by month it brings
up-to-date news, and is a most reliable guide to available supplies from a variety of
sources.
This is one of the “ essential ” journals you MUST have if you are to be kept fully
posted as to latest developments.
