Export & Market Development · Food & Beverage
We take food brands into new European markets, backed by 40 years of experience and a network across more than 20 countries.
The challenge
Without direct contacts to retailers, importers and distributors, doors stay closed. We have a network of partners all over Europe.
Different listing processes, legal requirements, sales models and cultures. What works at home often doesn't work elsewhere.
Our approach
From our very first meeting, we assess where you stand and build a fitting plan and a bespoke offer for you.
It doesn't matter where you are on your journey: a start-up that has just launched its first SKU or a family-run business with a few hundred employees and decades in the industry, taking your first step into export or already running a flourishing business in several markets.
We offer tailored support from experienced market experts: strategic project management, hands-on consulting and input right down to product development.
No corporate layers, just one dedicated partner at your side.
Services
01
Which countries and channels fit your product?
We analyse European markets and your competitors, then build your market positioning, pricing strategy, quick wins and long-term roadmap.
02
Access to importers, wholesale and retail.
We act as your export manager and build your sales structure in the target country: finding partners, making your product market-ready and selling it, including key account management and handling your marketing budget.
03
Positioning and presence for each market.
We analyse your brand, products and target market, develop the market concept, manage new product development (NPD) and create your sales pitch and sales strategy.
04
We grow your business.
Can't or don't want to manage every market yourself? Give us the market and a growth target, and we'll take over the day-to-day business and drive it there, including trade fairs, negotiations and ongoing account management.
