Distribute American Foods Internationally
Why do many import companies turn to the USA to distribute American foods internationally? One of the most critical reasons concerns the meticulously strict rules and regulations imposed by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) when defining what qualifies as organic food and beverage products. Savvy consumers worldwide understand that better-for-you products from the US undergo the most stringent process to meet the standards that are eligible for the coveted organic label.
Knowing the USA is the best source for importing natural food and beverage products, how does your import company connect with US brands? Do you follow the traditional way of doing business, which involves developing professional relationships with several different brokers that have access to different sources of better-for-you food and beverage products from the USA? The traditional way of doing business requires a significant investment of time and money.
What if we told you that your import company could distribute the highest quality wellness products from the USA without having to fly to international trade shows to interact with several different brokers?
Grovara: Changing the Way Importers Distribute Wellness Products from the US
Not only does working with a broker require considerable legwork to establish a professional relationship, but it also costs your import company money that is better spent on other business matters. Realizing the extent of the costly and time-consuming traditional way of doing business, Grovara introduced an eCommerce platform in 2010 that has revolutionized the import-export industry. Instead of traveling to international trade shows and working the phone for weeks before cutting a couple of deals, the Grovara eCommerce platform allows you to start conversations with health food and beverage brands from the US by simply logging in to a centralized digital communication center.
Once you register your import company to join the Grovara eCommerce platform, you and your team members responsible for growing sales overseas spend no more than 30 days completing a free onboarding process. During the onboarding process, you can expect to learn how to optimize the features of the Grovara eCommerce platform to start conversations. Within the same discussion, process orders, finalize sales transactions, and verify the accuracy of fulfillment requests. What was at one time a process that took weeks, if not months, can now take as few as a couple of hours for your import company to increase revenue while lowering operating costs.
Grovara implements a screening process that accepts only the most reputable brands that sell organic food and beverage products. We partner with hundreds of brands from the USA, with the following companies a sample of the type of sellers you can expect to meet on the Grovara eCommerce platform.
Become a Successful Importer by Going Digital
The Grovara self-service eCommerce platform provides logistical support for our import partners. For example, your company educates importers about the hold-up policies for storage containers left behind at both air and marine ports. Called demurrage charges, these fees can quickly lead to a substantial cost overrun of your monthly budget. Grovara also conducts extensive research using the data from SPINS Analytics to help your import company discover which healthy food and beverage products generate the greatest demand in the markets you serve. You can expect to learn about the customs and regulations imposed by the government responsible for managing international trade in the country where you plan to distribute US better-for-you products.
