A Practical Approach to Global Trade

Abstract

     This report, titled “A Practical Approach to Global Trade,” summarizes my 16-week internship at Yiwu Harati Trading Company, Limited. As a Manager Assistant Intern, my responsibilities included coordinating with suppliers, assisting with product inspections, supporting logistics, and preparing shipping documents for exports to India and Nepal.      This report reflects the tasks I performed, the skills I gained, and my professional growth.
The objectives of this internship were to (1) apply classroom knowledge to real business operations, (2) understand the workings of a trading company, and (3) develop key workplace skills such as time management, communication, and problem-solving. Though I faced challenges like language barriers and adapting to a fast-paced environment, with guidance from my supervisor and colleagues, I quickly adjusted and gained confidence in my work.
This internship provided me with a practical understanding of global trade and supply chain coordination. It also improved my professional skills and helped me understand how small trading companies operate in a competitive market, while enhancing my adaptability and responsibility in a dynamic work environment.
