Focused Trade Missions

Total Market Immersion for Your Product and Brand

Focused Trade Missions can save valuable time and resources by maximizing contact with prospective distributors and sales representatives.

Learn about your product’s export potential by traveling to international markets and meeting with key interested importers. There’s no better way to understand the local food industry landscape, assess the competition, and learn about the potential promotion of your products.

Focused Trade Missions bring you to a country to meet with international buyers and learn about the market. Each mission includes:

One-on-one guaranteed meetings with qualified buyers

Market analysis of your product prior to visit and in-market briefing

Tours of local supermarkets and food service providers

Product showcase and networking reception

Local language assistance and assistance with buyer follow-up

Participating in Focused Trade Missions leverages new trade leads, creates distribution opportunities, and boosts your international sales while also building new relationships with other mission participants.
