Hello, my name is Kaya and I am from Turkey.
I started a new business, a clothing brand and I am looking for importers from UK. I can also provide a contract manufacturing service.
Could you please advice me how to get in contact with correct customers?
PS: I don't want to share my website or...
Simon, I really appreciate your challenging questions, thank you for your time because it's always important with discussing others and hear different ideas.
I don't want to make any mistakes and I will try to find best solutions to your answers.
my products will be 'organic' which means has better quality certificated.
My belief to the market demand is also another issue. Every article and the news I read online is related with the growing dried fruit market. I believe if you manage to supply consistent quality you can create your market.
are you saying all of these because are you familiar with the market competiton? Do you know about dried fruit market?

You are right. The figs I will buy already being delivered to other EU countries, so they have the necessary licences.
I don't know the number, but the the market of exported figs from Turkey to UK is over 250m$ per year. It's a huge market.
I would be more than happy to hear any selling channels that you suggest.
yes, It’s almost zero chance to reach a buyer. So, should I give up at the beginning ?
Ok, I replied this before.
yes, I will be one of the players in the market but my point is market is still growing and I believe that I can create my share with the high quality service.
Selling to the last customer is the hardest point of this job, It’s a thing that I don’t think I have...
I will definitely start smaller, thanks for the advice. In terms of payment days, my agreement from Turkey will be pay when you sell. So I will not pay anything unless I sell them in here.
Hello,
