The Process
Market & Channel Analysis
We map the category, size the opportunity, identify the right retail channels, and select the entry model — distributor-led, direct, hybrid, or marketplace-first. Every decision is grounded in data before any investment is committed.
Category sizing · Retail chain landscape · Competitor shelf audit · Entry model selection
01
Get Shelf-Ready
We prepare everything a European retailer will ask for: Dutch-language packaging, EU label compliance (CLP/UFI), GS1 product data, importer structure and 3PL warehouse setup. Nothing is skipped.

02
Pilot Launch
We launch small and fast — an official bol.com store to prove demand online, and a shortlist of pilot retailers to gather real shelf data. Every gate has a clear go/no-go.

03
Scale
Once the data confirms the hypothesis, we roll out to the right chains. Volume unlocks direct key account management. The entry model evolves as the brand earns its place.

What we cover
Market Research
We map the category before you spend a cent. Opportunity size, the right channels, competitor shelf audit, price waterfall — every decision backed by data.
EU Label Compliance
CLP/UFI declarations, Dutch language requirements, ingredient labelling — we handle compliance so your product is shelf-legal in the Netherlands from day one.
Packaging Design
Your Turkish packaging adapted for the Dutch shelf: language, hierarchy, format and feel — without losing what made the brand worth exporting.
Distribution Setup
We identify the right importer or distributor, set up 3PL warehousing, brief retail chains and get your GS1 product data in order.
Digital Channels
Official bol.com and Amazon.nl stores set up before a single pallet ships — test real demand online while the retail pipeline builds.
One Team
Strategy, compliance, packaging, distribution and digital from the same desk. One point of contact. No briefing hand-offs between agencies.
