The figures come from the B2BMAP Global Sourcing Index [https://blog.b2bmap.com/b2bmap-global-sourcing-index-q2-2026], a new quarterly report published. The index measures real buyer activity on the marketplace: direct inquiries, buy requirement volume, verification rates, and category rankings. It covers April 1 to June 30, 2026.

B2BMAP Global Sourcing Index: Key Findings

"The B2BMAP Global Sourcing Index transforms real buyer activity from the B2BMAP global B2B marketplace into actionable market intelligence. It helps suppliers, exporters, and manufacturers identify demand trends, discover new opportunities and grow their international business with greater confidence." - Rahman Rob Bhuiyan, CEO of B2BMAP

Why Direct Buyer Inquiries Matter to Exporters

The gap between 17,000+ direct inquiries and 1,300 formal RFQs tells a clear story. When buyers find the right manufacturer or supplier, most skip the open bidding process and start a one-to-one conversation. By that point, the buyer has already seen a specific product and judged it relevant.

There is no bidding crowd and no middle layer. The discussion begins at the negotiation stage, between two named parties - a starting point from which deals close far more often than cold outreach.

The suppliers capturing this demand share one habit: complete, well-categorized product listings [https://b2bmap.com/products] that work as a direct sales channel, not just a visibility tool.

Verified Buyer Inquiries for Global Suppliers

Every buy requirement submitted through the Post Buy Requirement [https://b2bmap.com/post-buy-requirement] form is checked for business legitimacy, valid contact information, and clear sourcing intent before it is approved and matched.

Verification filters out low-grade and unqualified buy leads, so suppliers spend their time on buyers they can actually do business with. Over time, responding to verified inquiries also builds supplier's credibility and response-rate reputation on the marketplace, strengthening visibility with future buyers.
