Navigating the Waters of Global Commerce

Meet the Editor

Sanjay Pandhi Founder & Editor-in-Chief

Based in the bustling trade hub of Hong Kong, I have spent the last 30 years standing at the gateway of global manufacturing.

My career has been defined by hands-on experience in the trenches of international supply chains. I have spent three decades sourcing and customizing products from China and exporting them to markets in every corner of the globe.

Trade is not just about moving boxes; it is about people and precision. Over the years, I have:

  • Navigated the distinct customs clearance and safety requirements of dozens of different nations.

  • Bridged the gap between diverse cultures and languages, negotiating deals that satisfy all parties.

  • Managed the logistical complexities of working across multiple time zones to ensure timely delivery.

I haven’t just studied international trade—I have lived it.

The Mission

The world of tariffs and trade is often written in a language that is difficult to decipher. My goal with Liberty Trade Chronicles is to change that.

I established this platform to distill three decades of hard-earned experience into simple, understandable insights. Through our Country Focus and Product Focus analyses, I aim to:

  1. Simplify the Complex: Break down high-level trade policies and tariffs into plain English.

  2. Share Real-World Wisdom: Move beyond theory and discuss the practical realities of sourcing from China and exporting globally.

  3. Empower the Reader: Whether you are building a business or just want to understand the global economy, I want to give you the knowledge to navigate it with confidence.

  4. Market Watch: Monthly updates on logistics, currency, and commodity prices.

  5. Trade Fair Intelligence: Curated calendars and reports from the world’s biggest sourcing events.

Thank you for reading, and welcome to the Chronicles!
