What you can do preparing yourself
  • use of own network
  • chambers of commerce
  • network organizations
  • SIB-coaching procedure

The Dutch ‘Rijksdienst voor ondernemend Nederland’ (www.rvo.nl) can do a lot with contacts through the embassies and consulates. Or, for example, with the Dutch-foreign Chambers of Commerce, present in many countries. As a rule, they benevolently draw on their networks, possibly for a small fee.

If you are a member, also network organizations such as the World Trade Centers, Wateralliance, VNO-NCW, MKB-Nederland, VMO and others can use their networks for you.

And for free export advice, you can participate in a SIB program (Starters International Business). This is offered by many agencies and intermediaries.

Finally an open door. Read up on the available information about doing business in the country or region you want to go to, the local customs, etc. Online most of this information is easy to find.

Doing business abroad has never been so "close"

The added value of Dutch Export Solutions is:

  • that direct contact is already being made from our country with local parties;
  • these are guaranteed to be related to your field of business;
  • lines are short, possibly also outside office hours;
  • a lot of work is taken off your hands, without having to monitor it yourself;
  • still keeping our fingers on the pulse with a proven approach.

Manageable costs without surprises

Acquisition support and (international) sales contacts at a fixed rate. Only when transactions are realized from contacts where Dutch Export Solutions was involved, Dexss receives a small variable fee for a limited period of time. No high start-up costs, clear and no hassle.
