Panjiva Trends are based on data drawn from bills of lading obtained from The United States Department of Homeland Security. These bills of lading describe waterborne shipments that enter the United States. You can use Panjiva Trends to identify the trajectory of U.S. imports of any product that is named in the commodity description of a bill of lading. For instance, if you type jeans you will see how many bills of lading have included the word "jeans" each month. Keep in mind that different people may use different words to describe the same product. Therefore, you might want to type jeans OR denim pants to get a complete view of the U.S. imports of jeans. Also, keep in mind that Panjiva Trends only capture shipments to the U.S., and only shipments that are coming into the U.S. by boat. This means that Panjiva Trends does not provide a complete view of global trade. In particular, Panjiva Trends will not be representative of high value items that are flown in to the United States. and will not accurately represent items that come in by truck, from Mexico and Canada.
