How to find an importer or dealer in Germany?

Germany: the leading market in Europe

Germany has around 80 million inhabitants and is the largest economy in Europe. Germans have an eye for quality and have in general good spending power. The market has good opportunities for exports but requires a dedicated approach.

How to find a good business partner?

Germany has three major economic regions that are around 4 hours drive apart: The Ruhrgebiet with Frankfurt, Cologne and Düsseldorf, the Munich area and Berlin. Especially for services it would be good to have representation in each of these regions. For retail a denser distribution network is necessary.

Working with local agents or distributors helps you overcome the language barrier: Germans speak German. Also finding these agents or distributors requires promotion materials in German and preferably a German intermediate to make the first contact.
