    NASHVILLE, Tenn.--Nov. 28, 2001--BCB Plastics, the only firm representing 650 plastic manufacturers in Ningbo, plastics capital of China, will take its first outsourcing orders from the U.S. at the IAPD conference, beginning here in Nashville today.
    With their cell phones ready to take orders, Founders William Xin, a Xi'an, China native with degrees in physics and business from Yale, and Jeremy Haft, a Columbia marketing and technology wizard, bring to a close two years of rigorous screening and recruiting of local manufacturer partners in China.

    About BCB

    In 1999, a couple of highly successful entrepreneurs kicked off two years of national research in China, which brought forth the most extensive study ever done on China's plastics industry. Co-chairmen Jeremy Haft and William Xin found that the plastics sector in China is highly privatized and growing fast, fueled by strong, sustained domestic and international demand. Their research also demonstrated that by aggregating plastic product manufacturers across verticals - an innovation that has yet to occur in China - significant efficiencies could be achieved in the way that plastics are bought and sold, thereby helping to rationalize a highly fragmented market.
    The groundwork paid off. Through the enlistment of 650 Chinese plastic goods manufacturers, and more being recruited every day, BCB is able to achieve significant economies of scale in the buying of virgin, reground, and recycled resins as well as in the sale of sourced goods into the United States and other world markets.
