THE
BOARD OF TRADE
JOURNAL
To minimise economic friction by making readily available to all the latest
trade news collected from every corner of the earth is the principal object
of the Board of Trade in publishing an official Journal. A liberal interpre
tation of what constitutes “ trade news ” makes the articles contained in the
Journal as varied and informative as they are up-to-date and accurate.
SHIPPING TRANSPORT TEXTILES
RAILWA YS ENGINEERING MINING
are some of the many subjects on which articles regularly appear.
Cf The Board of Trade Journal is unique in the field of periodical trade
literature. It is edited from a Department of State and the whole resources
of that Department supplemented by those of the Department of Overseas
Trade are drawn upon in its production. From Overseas, the world-wide
organisation of the British Consular and Commercial and Diplomatic Service
regularly supplies these two Departments with full particulars of all the events
having a bearing on commercial opportunities and on the trend of trade.
The Board OF Trade Journal is therefore able to print early news of all
OPENINGS FOR TRADE FAIRS
COMMERCIAL TREATIES TARIFFS
TRADE EXHIBITIONS
CUSTOM REGULATIONS
and on these subjects it is usually the first source, certainly the most authori
tative source and frequently the only source, of information.
CJ Because it provides these exclusive services the Journal is read and filed for
reference by all the leading import and export houses, banks, insurance
offices, shipping offices, manufacturing firms and commercial offices through
out the world.
