Partner Sought
- Expected Role of a Partner
-
The ideal partner for this Italian SME in the EU is a locally established international partner with strong credibility across SMEs, studios, and buyers in the fashion, beauty, furniture, interior design, food & beverage, and building materials sectors.
This foreign partner should be capable of generating projects and business opportunities for clients with the Italian SME, working together to guide clients through structured and strategic internationalisation processes.
In the project partnership, the local partner brings relationships, regulatory expertise, and access to buyers, while the Italian company provides export management methodologies and a network of Italian suppliers through commercial and outsourcing agreements.
The 2 partners should adopt a consultative approach, rather than a purely sales-driven one, viewing export management and access to subsidised financing as valuable tools to enhance their network and create long-term growth opportunities.

A foreign importer/distributor or agency specializing in mid- to high-end Made in Italy products (design, furniture, food, fashion) looking to complement their sales role with product development services with selected Italian suppliers with the support of the Italian partner.
A foreign boutique consultancy specializing in sustainability, design, and lifestyle, leveraging the Italian SME as its operational partner to identify Italian manufacturers, custom projects and B2B missions in Italy.
France
In France, the ideal partner is:
An export/marketing consultancy firm or an independent business developer with a portfolio of SMEs and brands in the fashion, food, design, and hospitality sectors, looking to strengthen relationships with Italian suppliers or develop co-branding and private labeling.

A consultant or company with strong penetration in the HoReCa and gourmet retail channels (for food & beverage) and in the contract/residential sector (for furniture and interiors), capable of connecting the Italian SME to groups of foreign buyers interested in pasta, specialty products, furnishing accessories, and Italian design solutions.
