@OP you should know that import and export nowadays are easier than before, any country who want to export their goods will contact expedition service instead of you. Safety and security is more important even you can offer cheaper price, with your current reputation, I doubt people are interested with your offer.
Better to find your niche rather than offering common service.
Yeah you are right maybe with time when op might build his reputation then more people likely contact him and the will be people within his local community. I don't think any external community would want to use his service to import/export goods.
For things like it's mostly needs a high profile person from the forum to deal with after people might confirmed how trusted and reliable could be.
