The five steps

Choose a market. Get ready. Connect. Close.

  1. Pick your market

    Compare markets on live demand, tariffs, and fit for your product. Every country page shows what is really flowing on your corridor, and the duty you would actually pay, trade agreements included.

    • Live tariffs, agreements & market pulse
    • Side-by-side market comparison
    • Demand for your product, not averages

  2. Choose your way in

    Eighteen entry methods across four families: a distributor, licensing, a franchise, a joint venture, a marketplace, an EOR hire, and more. When you are not sure, talk it through with Meridian — export against invest, weighed with your own numbers. The choice stays yours.

    • 18 entry methods, distribution to a local office
    • Ask Meridian when you are unsure
    • Export & investment on one platform
    The entry-method picker in Promote:Global, grouped into export-based, contractual, investment/FDI, and people-led: from direct exporting and distributors to licensing, franchising, greenfield investment, joint ventures, and a local hire via EOR
  3. Work the plan

    Each method unfolds into a step-by-step framework for that market. Meridian, which has read your business, drafts the steps and next actions — looking up the corridor’s duties, requirements and paperwork as it goes, and showing which source each number came from. You approve what goes into the plan.

    • A framework per entry method
    • Meridian looks it up, then drafts
    • You approve every change

  4. Meet the right partners

    Providers, agencies, chambers, and financiers matched to what each step needs. The provider directory is self-listed; where a trade agency has vouched for a firm, the listing says so and names the agency. Warm, consented introductions, not cold lists. You initiate.

    • Providers, agencies, chambers & finance
    • Matched to the step you are on
    • Warm, consented intros; you initiate
    The provider directory a company searches in Promote:Global: a search field, country and sort filters, a find-an-advisor entry, and self-listed providers grouped by what they do — freight and logistics, warehousing and 3PL, cold chain, customs and compliance, packaging and labeling — each category showing how many firms are listed
  5. Close and track

    Log deals as they move, generate the paperwork from your own data, and watch per-market readiness scores climb as the corridor comes together.

    • Deals & pipeline in one place
    • Commercial Invoice · Proforma · Packing List
    • Export & investment readiness scores
    Documents & compliance on an export project: a commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, and bill of lading suggested by Meridian, each flagged to confirm against the corridor’s own requirements, plus an EUR.1 movement certificate and a Namibian phytosanitary certificate added by hand
