“Your first 50 right steps to enter the Russian food market”.
Step № 49 – “Start your food business in Russia remotely
and manage all processes without problems”
The topic of remote operations started to arise when I started working with foreign companies willing to enter the Russian food market. When developing strategies for these companies, I always try to save their money at the beginning, and then to help them make a profit. Russian market is attractive for foreigners, but many are afraid of barriers and laws.
Moreover, they do not know how to do business in Russia, how to speak the Russian language, or how to find good customers in Russia. Many foreign companies are not sure whether to open an office in Russia or not because they are not sure whether their products will be sold or not.In this article I will share how you can avoid a lot of headaches and start your operations in Russia without opening an office or a branch…
Yours faithfully,
