Local setup in Romania: commercial and operational roadmap

Local setup combines market validation, partner selection, operational organisation and specialist legal decisions.

What to understand about the project

Define the local team’s tasks: sales, production, storage, customer service or supplier coordination. Location then depends on accounts, skills, infrastructure and logistics.

How to take action

Prepare a roadmap with deliverables and owners: market test, business model, locations, recruitment, suppliers, information systems, administrative steps and decision date. Check assumptions after each phase.

Point to watch

An investment programme announcement does not mean your company has received support. Confirm conditions, dates and criteria with relevant bodies and advisers.

Checklist

Define the local function.
Test demand.
Qualify location and skills.
Consult experts.
