Food Consolidators in the UK for export

Question

Hello,

We are called JimJams, we provide a full range of healthier spreads, including ‘No Added Sugar’ Chocolate Spreads, Jams, Peanut Butter and Honey. As the name suggests we have a bright and eye-catching brand and is selling well in the UK. However, we would now like to export our products/brand.

Is this something you could help us with?

Could you put us in contact with food consolidators here in the UK that already export products?

We have had great feedback from the Far East and have recently returned from Poland where they also loved our branding.

Many thanks.

Answer

Hi Kevin
I have seen your products and as you say the name and branding is eye-catching.

Interesting to hear more about your feedback from Far East and Poland, but you also need to put together an export marketing plan.
Yes I can help you with contacts I have on food consolidators, but also we could look at how to expand your business through distributors in the countries as well. Depends on what your long term strategy is.

Contact me to discuss more, with no obligation.
