Building a Sustainable Business
Whether you are running a small dairy business or a large factory the following key areas must be addressed if the business is to be effective:
- Business strategy and planning
- Marketing
- Product development, production planning and quality
- Financial management and record keeping
- People management
European Market Access
- Before beginning to tackle export markets, businesses need the full picture. Our Into the Market training programme covers the essentials of accessing EU markets.
- It is difficult and time consuming to fully understand distant markets and their potential. Our Market Profiles offer a clear and wide view of the market for your product.
- It is hard for businesses to understand the opportunities and challenges facing their products. Our Market Awareness Tours are for businesses new to mainstream markets. The programme provides preparation before the tour and escorted visits to shops, buyers and trade fairs.
- A product will only be successful if it satisfies the needs of its buyers and customers. Our Product Development for Export training programmes, manuals, trend and reports, and consultancy services are designed to increase understanding of the key elements of product development and the requirements of international buyers.
- Once the products have been designed and produced, our tailor-made Sales Tours and Trade Fair Participation programmes enable businesses to successfully promote their products as well as identifying and meeting appropriate buyers.
