The booming economy of China and the related phenomenon such as global sourcing and multinational purchasing have left ample scope for suppliers online to carry out their business in a big way. Suppliers online tend to provide a platform which has got a world wide reach in the form of individual and organizational consumers interested in global sourcing and multinational purchasing deals from different nooks and corners of the world. Such is the importance of suppliers online that it would be hard to imagine the expanse and growth of global sourcing and multinational purchasing without the former.

Of course suppliers online cannot be solely linked to the Chinese economy only but in the era of global sourcing and multinational purchasing, they tend to occupy important place in different regions of the world since the internet is a world wide medium having its reach to even some of the remotest places. To give an imaginary example let us suppose an Eskimo living in the polar regions wants to buy some product, he/she can do it using an appropriate website searching for suppliers online, which can be connected by satellite links thus in a way carrying out multinational purchasing or global sourcing albeit on a very small scale. Of course this is just an imaginary example of multinational purchasing or global sourcing carried out using suppliers online network, and it may not happen in reality but still this elementary example goes to show the power of the internet and its influence on trade and commerce the world over.

This does not mean to say that before the advent of the internet and the availability of suppliers online, there was no global sourcing or multinational purchasing activity carried out in the world, still the procedures and techniques were insufficient to effectively surmount the barriers of time and space, two of the most important factors which could spell the difference between failure and success of an organization. But with the advent of the internet and the vast availability of suppliers online, the global sourcing and multinational purchasing activities have got a great push and for good.

There are various other aspects of suppliers online and their role in promoting the activities of global sourcing and multinational purchasing and these will be discussed from various perspectives in different articles of this series. For the meantime it is sufficient to know that suppliers online are huge assets in the system of global sourcing and multinational purchasing arrangements and the latter would not have reached a stage where they are today, without the help of the former.
