I would not include anything about the "abroad business" in the tag line per se.

Also, I would beware of using the word cheap in the tag line.

Please note: as a marketing tag line, the fact that it is overseas, is not a sales pitch. What matters is that it\'s less expensive.
In US marketing jargon, low cost, lower cost, less costly, cost savings is what it\'s all about....
