What to Consider When Expanding a Business Internationally
Considering international expansion? Learn about the five most important items to set your business up for a successful landing and future growth
Expanding a business internationally is a big feat for any business, regardless of your company’s size or destination. With that in mind, there are a handful of items to consider that will help guide your location decision. For instance, is the location a good fit geographically? Are there skilled workers to support your company’s growth?
Boudewijn Barth, head of NFIA Atlanta, says “Base a decision on facts, not emotions. Especially when it comes to smaller and medium sized enterprises, they can let emotions factor into the selection process. For example, business owners enjoyed their time in Spain or they have a good friend who can help them set up in Paris. Doing due diligence, looking at every aspect of the market that you would like to serve is most important.”
