Location, Location, Location....

A lot depends on the right location. You don’t want to end up making the wrong decision on this one by for example renting offices in an area with a bad reputation or difficult to find. We are able to provide you with a selection of options dependent on your requirements. Some countries are offering offices in free-zones where you don’t require a local sponsor which enables you to fully own your business and issue a certain number of visas. These free-zones are set-up in a way to ease the market entry especially for companies from abroad. However you might prefer to join force with a strong local partner who provides the political backing and has a rich network of influential connections. In that case we can advise not only on the partner by doing for you the background study but also on the location the partner is recommending.

Running your business

Setting up and running the business abroad, especially the MENA region is often not the same as in Western countries. You cannot just replicate the setup as in your European or US home market with the same resources and same business approach and expect the same results, simply because of the major difference in how you run the business in the Arab world.

Therefore we are offering new market entrants a full support in managing the new company in any of the Arabic countries. From consulting and advisory roles on a board level up to staffing either the entire management or only selected roles within the company and running the same is the essence of our value to add.

It does not matter if it is sales, marketing or operations we have the experience and expertise to help you in the entire daily operation.

Finding the best local talents

When you enter a new market you don’t want to start business with staff that is not familiar with local customs and the culture of the hosting country. Especially in the Arabic region,
where people are usually still very traditional, it is key to understand the local culture, in order to succeed in business. That means you need to hire sales and marketing personnel who are familiar with the market or even have already a customer base where you might want to tap into. In the last 20 years in the MENA region we were able to work with lots of local talents and therefore we have a rich base of professionals in several industries.

The language is another potential barrier you don’t want to deal with when entering a new market. Hence it is mission critical to make sure that especially the customer interfacing staff speaks the local language i.e. Arabic fluently.

Legal Support

Entering a new market bears many risks. One of them is not be familiar with the local law and taxation rules. We can provide you with all the legal support you require through our partnership with the best in breed legal offices locally. We will help you to draft your contract with local partners if needed, to avail the trade or commercial license, to arrange visit-, work and residential visas.

We are also looking forward to find you the right business partner or investors.
It is very challenging to find the right business partners abroad. You don’t want to risk ending up with the wrong partners who are not living up to their promises and who are not what they pretend to be. Therefore you should rely on professionals who are familiar with the market. After understanding what exactly you are looking for we will provide you with trusted business partners.
