gsmLeads.com is made to connect handset makers with wholesale buyers

gsmExchange.com has launched a B2B platform – gsmLeads.com, designed to connect manufacturers with distributors and large wholesale buyers of mobile phones and accessories worldwide. The main idea is help distributors directly connect with manufacturers, hence helping them spread margins at least a bit.

Initially, as far as I can tell, the website is full of Chinese companies (the number is close to 100), which unsurprisingly offer tons of clone devices that could hardly be sold legally outside certain Asian countries. However, the goal is to have major manufacturers on board in the future, though I don’t see that happening as long as they compete with their nemesis (handset clone makers) on the same platform. Then again, who knows, and in either case — whether major brands jump on board or not — I’ve no doubts there’s a future for gsmLeads. You are free to visit the site and judge for yourself…
