Trade Map database and analytic tools of the International Trade Center:

Nowadays, export market opportunities are developed based on the Trade map database of the ITC. To conduct this type of research, the Relative Advantage Index or RCI (Revealed comparative advantage indices) of export/import is used.

Searching for information on foreign trade requires knowledge of classifications and codes used in international trade and customs statistics, such as the Harmonized System.

Statistical data, compilations, and research reports issued by the statistical organization of the respective country, city, or local government:

Statistics of China can be obtained from the website of the National Bureau of Statistics of China. You can view the annual statistical data (China Statistical Yearbook) online by clicking on the Annual Data section in the Data menu of the website. Information (tables and data) is available for all of China and regions of interest by province (Inner Mongolia, Hebei, Shanxi, etc.), by city (Hohhot, Urumqi, Baotou, Harbin, etc.) and by industry and topic (price data, retail and food industry).

Mongolia’s main export countries, such as Russia, Korea, China, and Japan, are producing and exporting countries themselves, so ministries and government agencies do not usually publish reports and information about domestic production, trade, and consumer markets. However, it would be more effective to collect and use data from government organizations, agencies, and institutes that support foreign trade and small and medium-sized industries (SMEs). For Mongolian manufacturers who intend to export their products, it will be possible to establish contact with these organizations, supply semi-finished products and raw materials, cooperate with manufacturers and traders of the country and region, and obtain information and research about the market of the region. For example, through the Russian Export Center, it is possible to contact the entrepreneurs of the Republic of Buriat.

Market research report and database of research and consulting agencies that produce and sell market research reports and information:

Often these types of market research reports and databases require a fee to use. Such reports can provide more detailed and specific information. In most cases, these agencies publish general statistics and historical survey data in a way that can be viewed and used immediately for free, but access to detailed reports and databases for more detailed reports and updated figures requires a fee. If you find general statistics and previous research data sufficient, you can use them directly. If you are more serious and can afford to pay that amount, you can also purchase reports and information.
These types of agencies have become a major part of the marketing research industry. According to the 2021 report of the Global Marketing Research Market issued by ESOMAR, the global professional research association, in 2020, income of such activities (Reporting) reached 24.9 billion USD, which occupied 27.7% of total income from marketing research industry.

Forms of delivery include selling reports and data online, paid use, organizing presentations, and giving business consultations based on research and data. Collecting primary data is not the main business but making recommendation is available at such companies as Gartner, Forrester, Mintel, IHS Markit, Euromonitor, Deloitte, McKinsey & Co., PwC etc.
