On 4th September a series of workshops to understand exporting and supplying overseas customers will take place at the City Fringe Marketing Suite.
Although your business may have an established UK market, there's often no reason why it couldn't successfully compete overseas too, growing your revenue and profit. But before you start, you need to have sound knowledge of your would-be markets. You also need to consider whether your products are right for each target market and whether you have the necessary resources to start exporting.
This will be particularly important for designers who will be showcasing in NY Profile in New York City.
The seminars will include: a review of what is required before the NY Profile event, during and after event
an overview of the NY/American Market
guest speaker Eimear Hawker (Topshop Head of Technical Services) to discuss legal requirements regarding importing into the US.
