Why good products stay home

  • “We’ll pay a partner and get nothing.”

    You pay for the people and a success fee. Contracts and listings stay in your name.

  • “We’ll get on the shelf and won’t sell.”

    Every plan starts with your customer and your price on the shelf, before we spend your budget.

  • “Doing it ourselves was slow and expensive.”

    The team already exists, with buyers in 30+ countries who take our calls.

Your product has a reason to be chosen. We take it to the people who decide.

How it usually goes

  • Build an export department

    Strong, but expensive and slow. You fund the whole team up front and find out whether it was built right only much later — paying salaries all the while.

  • Hire one or two people

    Looks lean, but export is more than two people: certification, registrations, materials, buyer follow-up. What two people can't hold, nobody holds.

  • Hand it to contractors

    A freelancer for registrations, an agency for marketplaces, a consultant for the chains. Nobody owns the result, and the pieces never add up to a plan. Movement, not progress.

  • Plug in our team

    The export department already exists: every function, scaled to your scope. You pay for the people your plan needs.

From plan to shelf

Four products, one path. Take the whole route or the step you need.

  1. Pro Forma

    Market entry plan

    Market research first: which countries and channels, at what price position, and what your product needs to get there — before you commit budget.

  2. First Shelf

    Marketplaces

    In a new country your first shelf is often online. You walk into a chain with ratings, reviews and sales already there.

  3. Opening Order

    Retail chains and distributors

    From the first meeting to the first purchase order — at a price that keeps your brand’s value.

  4. Floor Plan

    Trade shows

    The right show for your product, the right stand and the right people on it; every offer followed up after. A negotiation plan, not a stand.

Clearance runs alongside: compliance and import — registration, certification, logistics and a local entity, everything your product needs to cross the border and stay on the shelf.

Getting listed is half the work. Staying listed is the other half.

Trade shows as a system

One show, many markets, and one level of product. Buyers fly in from a whole region looking for a certain price tier: a show in Istanbul draws buyers hunting for sharp prices, Bologna and Las Vegas draw buyers who pay for a better product.

  • We pick the shows that fit your product and cut the ones that would only burn the budget.
  • Each show is tied to your markets and channels: one plan, not a string of trips.
  • The stand is built for the show and its buyers, and for a job: to stop the right buyer and start the right talk. It can look striking without a big budget. Buyers in Asia like to be surprised; in Europe and the US they trust a classic stand.

20+ stands a year at international trade shows, run by our team.

What we take on

Choose the functions you need now; the rest switch on when you decide. One team, already inside your product: nothing to brief twice, no pieces to coordinate.

  • Market entry strategy

    Which markets, which channels, in which order, and what your product needs to get there.

  • Retail and distribution

    We find chains and distributors that fit, prepare the offer and negotiate.

  • E-commerce and marketplaces

    Launch on the platforms that matter in each market.

  • Trade shows

    Space, stand builders, meetings and follow-up, coordinated on your behalf.

  • Registration and certification

    Documents, testing and packaging adaptation with specialist partners.

  • Logistics and 3PL

    Warehousing and fulfilment through vetted providers.

  • Local entity setup

    A legal presence in your target country, arranged with local partners.

How we charge

  • You pay for people

    A monthly retainer covers the specialists working on your markets: their time, experience and active relationships.

  • We earn when you do

    Our success fee is tied to results we agree on before we start.

  • No markups

    Stand builders, labs and logistics providers invoice you directly. No hidden commissions.

  • Everything in your name

    Contracts, listings and registrations belong to your company.

The retainer depends on your scope. Each market adds people; retail and distribution need a different team from e-commerce; every function you switch on adds its specialist. One channel in one market needs the fewest.

We never name our clients. We won't name you.

Case studies and the team are in our credentials deck. We share it after a first call.
