Case Study: E-Silk Route Ventures achieves export success with Alibaba.com

From zero to success with Alibaba

E-Silk Route Ventures (Pvt) Ltd., a Sri Lankan export agriculture company, started with zero customers and needed a way to build its export business and reach overseas buyers. The company joined Alibaba.com as a Gold Supplier member in 2014 to find international customers and grow its sales pipeline.

With Alibaba.com, E-Silk Route Ventures quickly connected with buyers in Europe and Australia, winning its first customer within 6 weeks and turning that account into a repeat client. The company has since served 15 customers and now receives 3–4 orders per month, including a long-term Australian customer that led to additional referrals and more sales.
