Exporting to Romania: initial B2B steps

Exporting to Romania starts with customers and channels suited to the offering, before negotiating a contract or establishing a structure.

What to understand about the project

A French-speaking SME must define whether it sells to a distributor, major account, installer or professional end user. Each channel involves different demonstrations, service levels and ordering patterns.

How to take action

Prepare a usable product sheet, clarify commercial terms, select two or three segments and identify contacts. Arrange qualified discussions and limited trials. A local partner can support access, but its role must be defined.

Point to watch

Check technical, contractual and tax obligations case by case with qualified professionals. Even a recent investment guide cannot replace checks at the transaction date.

Checklist

Describe the buyer.
Check product requirements.
Test the channel.
