With a growing middle class, the dynamic APAC region is showing no signs of slowing down. Asia and Australia are wildly fragmented markets with significant challenges for the European manufacturers. As APAC experiences domestic growth, local business leaders are becoming savvier and are looking for foreign trade partners with deep knowledge of distributor requirements and existing working relationships.
APACTRADE takes the guessing game out of expanding into new markets. We ensure the success of your products by actively supporting sales on a daily basis within the region and pairing them with the right partners.
Our projects are based on our methodology called the ‘4S-Process’,
inspired by the “FORCE” of a powerful 4 cylinder engine.
APACTRADE enables us to discover further Asian countries faster and with less financial and personal invest. The deep technical understanding and passion of APACTRADE is a very important factor for us.
