by Distributors Road
A dedicated program to introduce your products to the right buyers, in the right markets — through direct field meetings, tastings, and brand storytelling.
Producing great products is only half the equation. Breaking into foreign markets requires a local presence, credibility, and the right relationships — and all of that takes time and resources most producers don't have alone.
Without someone physically meeting buyers, presenting samples and telling your brand story in the local language and culture, your products stay invisible.
In markets like Asia, access is everything — and access comes from relationships, not cold calls. A buyer network built over 20 years is invaluable, and nearly impossible to replicate from scratch. Without it, doors simply don't open.
A single trade show visit is never enough. Building buyer relationships requires months of structured prospecting, follow-up, and relationship management.
There are several ways to develop export. Each has a cost, a risk, and a reality.
A structured, done-for-you program that gives your brand a real market presence — without a full-time hire, without trade show costs, and without giving up a percentage of your sales.
We identify and contact at least 200 qualified importers, distributors, and buyers in your target markets, building a pipeline specific to your product category and positioning.
Our team arranges and attends in-person meetings with potential buyers. We present your products, share your story, and conduct professional tastings on your behalf.
We translate your brand identity into language that resonates with local buyers — adapting tone, emphasis, and positioning to cultural expectations.
You access a shared online platform with real-time visibility on all prospecting actions, meetings booked, buyers contacted, and outcomes logged.
3 easy steps from your first request to program launch.
Submit your request on this page: tell us about your products and the markets you're targeting. That's it (no commitment at this stage).
We review your application and assess your profile. If selected, you receive your personalised quote within 48 hours. If not selected at this stage, we will schedule a call with you to explore whether there is a path forward together.
You accept the quote and make your payment. We issue your invoice and the program begins. We hold a final onboarding call if needed, then share your access to our online tracking platform so you can follow every step in real time, daily.
How is pricing determined?
The fee is per country and fully custom — it varies based on the number of countries (degressive rates for multiple markets), the type of products, and the buyer targets in each market. Apply to receive your personalised quote.
A structured monthly investment — no commission, no percentage on sales, ever.
Your customers, your data · no commission · no percentage on sales · ever
The fee depends on several criteria:
Degressive rates apply when you select multiple markets. The more countries you commit to, the lower the per-country fee.
Premium spirits, fine wines, artisan food — each category has its own market complexity, buyer base, and level of effort required on the ground.
Mass retail, premium on-trade, specialist importers, e-commerce — the scope and depth of buyer outreach directly influences the program cost.
Add-ons such as trade show presence, dedicated communication campaigns, PR, or photography are available and quoted additionally.
The fee is a program investment — not a guarantee of sales. It covers structured market action: real buyers contacted, meetings held, brand presented. Results depend on your product, pricing, and the market. We'll be honest with you about fit before you ever sign anything.
Your exact quote is provided after the selection call — at no cost, no obligation.

In most markets, we don't just introduce you to buyers — we own the import structure.
In most of our target markets, we operate our own import companies — some of which already supply the country's largest national buyers, representing tens of thousands of final points of sale.
Depending on the buyer and the market, one or several distributors may handle delivery. Our importer consolidates orders and coordinates the chain, adapted to your products and target buyers.
Documents, customs, taxes, transport — we manage everything end-to-end, or guide you through every step. You focus on production; we handle the complexity of international trade.
Export markets are built over years, not months. We contract on a 5-year base timeline with fully adjustable dates. Personnel changes, sampling delays, regulatory timelines — real-world factors are built into our schedule. No pressure, no penalties for market realities.
We generally include a sales amount guarantee in your contract (ExW). The guarantee works simply: if the agreed sales target is not reached within the program period, we repeat the program the following year at our cost. Ask us whether your profile qualifies.
Fill in the form on this page — your products, the countries that interest you, and a brief overview of your export objectives. No commitment, no upfront cost.
If we already know each other, or after an introductory call, we assess your profile. Selected producers receive a fully customised quote — starting from €1,497/month over 12 months, up to fully bespoke programs for multi-market or large-scale projects.
You sign the quote digitally and make your payment. We issue your invoice and the program starts — prospection phase first, then field meetings. Full tracking dashboard included.
Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis. Submit yours today and our team will get back to you within 5 business days.
