Frequently asked questions
Using a new corridor signal
Definitions and practical guidance for reading this page without confusing a calculated signal with reported trade or a commercial forecast.
What does a new corridor signal mean?
It identifies an exporter, buyer market, and HS6 combination included in the available new-corridor signal set for 2024. It is a research prompt, not a guarantee of demand or sales.
Is the market opportunity reported trade?
Reported buyer imports and exporter share are observations. Any projection or share-gap measure is calculated from the available data and should not be treated as an order or forecast.
What should exporters check next?
Validate product fit, buyers, tariffs, standards, logistics, pricing, competition, and the depth of product-level history before pursuing the route.
