Your Gateway to New Markets
Discover the European food and beverage landscapes, gain insights into your competitors, strategically position your product, and initiate your sales journey.
While it’s possible to expand into a new market by establishing your in-house sales team, the most efficient approach often is to have a regional expert on site who understands the culture, knows the legal requirements, speaks the language and has already a valuable network of agents, distributors, brokers, or resellers.
To win them over, you must present a compelling narrative outlining why your product outperforms existing options and a clear vision of how they can increase their profitability by collaborating with you. We stand at your side to develop your food business in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the Netherlands and the UK, France, Italy and Spain.

TIME TO EXPAND
Taking your food business international
Restaurant and Gastronomy-Consulting
Food Service | Culinary Design
In addition to production, export and trade, we also advise on gastronomy, food service, and catering.
For food and beverage businesses that are successful in scaling up their operations and establishing a presence on a national scale, going international can seem like the next logical step. It’s an exciting prospect ripe with opportunity, and if growth has been steady so far, it’s easy to assume that success will carry over across borders.
Of course, the matter isn’t as simple as that. There are a host of additional considerations that come with becoming a global company. Assuming that your products will succeed with distinct new consumer bases can lead to resources and time being wasted if the proper steps aren’t taken to tailor the approach and optimize results given differing circumstances. The best way to ensure you establish a path to success is to partner with our team of hospitality experts. We understand restaurant business models in your target market and have a reputable network of contacts that can save you valuable time and money.
Whether you are planning a new opening, seeking fresh inspiration, require assistance with a turnaround, or wish to expand, our consultants hail from diverse backgrounds including fine dining, food service, coffee shops, food stores, catering, takeaway, and franchising. They possess an intimate understanding of the precise adjustments required. With a creative spirit, strategic mindset, a keen eye for figures, industry knowledge, and extensive experience, we accompany you on your path to success.
