I AM TO SMALL TO EXPORT
Any company, farmer can export. Its not the volume of
product that restricts your ability to trade neither is it
your ability to find a market that is willing to grow with
you and yes they do exist!! Its not your high transaction
costs (cost to do the deal) that is frustrating your ability
to be competitive, but rather your approach to trying to
export alone!!! You must consider forming Joint Ventures be
it at production level, at the logistics front or with your
buyer(s). Even AIM could partner with you part time until
you can go it alone.
The most common complaint received is the one of gearing or
financing such sophisticated supply. The answer lies in
involving an appropriate third party. Some banks do not
even have the finance solutions (instruments) required. In
others the country’s monetary policies restrict banks
abilities to assist.
This is where AIM can add much value to your efforts. We
have overcome some of these challenges. If you have the
patience you can and will export, provided that you
implement strategies that have been forged over many years.
