Exporting Marketing Channel Audits

Why Should You Attend:

The exporter goods must establish distribution network in foreign markets to gain accessibility to intermediaries who will sell their products to the users. Therefore, the exporter must develop a plan that will address each element of exporting processes that includes market research of goods consumed and payment process for their sold goods. For this reason, the exporter must be aware of United States and foreign laws that are associated with exporting transactions. For exporters who do not have a well-defined plan and implement procedures may have their distribution of goods delayed, fined and/or confiscated during exporting transaction process.
