Find International Distributors for Your Product

Global demand for organic food and beverage products has exploded over the past decade as consumers in markets as far away as Budapest, Hungary, and South Korea understand the nutritional and environmental benefits of consuming better-for-you foods. As a natural food brand operating in the United States, how do you find international distributors for your product that can reach your target markets overseas?

Do you take the traditional approach to global distribution by working with individual brokers? The individual broker approach worked well before the advent of digital technology. However, recruiting international distributors to sell your wellness products by following the broker approach takes considerable time and money. In addition, to meet international distributors, you have to attend trade shows overseas. The cost of traveling to and from an international trade show held in a city such as London can be prohibitive.

There has to be a better way for your brand to find international distributors for your product.

4 Tips to Choose the Right International Distributors

Choosing the right international distributors for your product requires your brand to follow four helpful tips.

First, collaborate with a partner that has extensive knowledge of the global markets where you want to sell your natural food and beverage products. Grovara is the perfect partner because of our revolutionary eCommerce platform. Second, get to know the customs and trade regulations imposed by the country where you want to distribute your products. Once again, Grovara helps our partners by educating them about customs, tariffs, and trade regulations. Third, test a new distributor before agreeing to a long-term contract. A distributor might seem like a good fit at the start of a business relationship. Still, you should process a few orders first to determine a distributor’s reliability and ability to increase sales overseas. Fourth, invest in your distributor in both time and money. It might take a short period for both parties to become comfortable with the business relationship.

Spend the time necessary to make the business relationship work.
