Capstone has been engaged in international merchandise purchases and sales from its inception. Its operations involve the import of products from Asia, India, Europe, and South America. Trade financing provides foreign manufactures access to US markets through Capstone's network of buyers, wholesalers, and distributors.

Coupled with an ability to provide financing and to arrange the required import services (including air or sea shipping, inland freight arrangements, preparation of shipping documents, export licenses, establishment of letters of credit, etc.), Capstone participation offers a less expensive alternative to "in-house" export operations.
