What the run taught

  • Product-group searches found makers most efficiently; municipality searches filled in small towns.
  • Many makers show their exports only on a dealer page or in language versions, not in words. So export level is read from evidence.
  • Customer stories and site footers caused a few false matches. So every delivery is also reviewed by hand.
