However much information they gather few people feel that they are really ready for a new market without making an overseas trip. A visit to the market is an opportunity to develop your understanding and discover the full picture around the sketched out research findings.
Market visits can be a private company affair in the form of a marketing research study or fact-finding mission. Alternatively many companies enjoy the benefits of joining a Trade Mission or Europartenariat event.
Contact your local Chamber of Commerce to discuss how they can help with your initial market research. Overseas Chambers in the UK and the overseas offices of UK Chambers may also be able to offer advice.
Chamber led Trade Missions provide an excellent way for companies to visit international markets as part of a well organised group of like minded business people.
Most Chamber of Commerce missions also benefit from travel subsidies from UK Trade & Investment.
Chambers can assist you and your company meet your exporting goals. Ahead of the visit, experienced and professional staff help you with essential research and will liaise with the British Embassy before and during the visit to ensure maximum publicity. An experienced mission leader is on hand throughout - and vitally - after the visit to help with the follow-up that will ultimately determine whether the mission has been a success for you.
