Are you Export Ready?
Are you export ready? We have drawn up a short list of guidelines for companies who are looking to begin exporting abroad.
- Do your research. It’s important you know your product inside out as well as the country you will be exporting to. You also need to identify and analyse your target market, the demand for your product in the country you plan to export to and any competition that exists.
- Draw up a plan. Before beginning any exporting, you need to identify achievable goals: how many products do you plan on selling? And in what timeframe do you hope to do so? This also means putting aside adequate resources. Planning needs to be done with regard to the distribution channels & companies you hope to use & what price you will set on the products you are exporting to the country.
- When exporting abroad, one of the most important things to consider is how you get your products from Ireland to the chosen export country. You need a reputable, professional & experienced provider to crate & pack your products to ensure their safeguarding during export. This is where Precision Box can help.

Aim to match supply with demand, market your product offering to ensure growth and tailor products to specific local tastes when required. Local knowledge can go a long way to ensuring success when exporting abroad.
- Ongoing management, review & commitment. Exporting presents ongoing challenges and company commitment to ensure continued success. Exporters should review their export management practices on an ongoing basis.
