Both the nature of your product or service and its associated regulation in the export market will dictate the level of adaptation it requires before it can be legally placed on that market. However, even products in less regulation-intensive sectors benefit from adaptation to secure early market adoption and revenue growth. There are several activities Global Trade Department can perform in conjunction with you or on your behalf to best prepare your business and your proposition, these include but are not limited to:
At GTD, we are often heard to say that it is not tariffs that stifle international trade but rather overseas regulation and an exporter’s inability to comply; in our experience, regulatory knowledge and compliance is paramount. GTD provides practical advice on all EU and global regulation and compliance enabling companies to begin or resume trade in the shortest possible time frame.
GTD has EU and global sustainability regulation mapped out to 2040 and advises clients on the impacts and compliance requirements of these depending on their products and export markets. It is never too soon to focus on sustainability regulation; compliance often mandates significant changes to companies’ processes, operations, and data governance, this can take time to implement.
GTD undertakes what we call regulatory/legal studies or assessments that essentially sees us analysing the regulation that applies to your goods in a certain market(s) and advising what needs to be in place to legally ship them and place them on the target market.
GTD provides companies with peace of mind that they are sourcing established, trustworthy and credible overseas partners, be they suppliers or local market distributors, resellers, and agents. Moreover, in recent years, the increased focus on sustainability, has seen us prioritising global partners who truly share our clients’ values and ethos so they can be sure their brand is protected.
Both the nature of your product and/or service and its associated regulation in the export market will dictate the level of adaptation it requires before it can be legally placed on that market. GTD helps clients avoid costly mistakes whilst also securing early market adoption and revenue growth by ensuring their product or service aligns with relevant regulation from the get go.
