Not a database. Not a one-off intro. A four-month, brand-controlled outreach programme that puts your drinks brand in front of sixty named European buyers and keeps following up until they reply.
"Route to market" is a tidy phrase for a messy job: figuring out which buyers can move your brand in a given country, reaching the right person, and staying on them until a conversation starts. Plenty of consultancies will write you a strategy deck. Far fewer will do the daily, dogged outreach that turns the strategy into replies. We're built for the second part.
You know your brand best, but outreach is a time sink that competes with production, sales and admin. The follow-ups are what get dropped, and the follow-ups are where the replies come from. We make outreach our full-time job so it doesn't become your midnight one.
A good export salesperson is expensive, slow to ramp, and a big bet for an early brand. Our programme is a flat £500/month for four months, a fraction of a salaried hire, with sixty named buyers approached in that window.
Large consultancies bill for strategy and research. We don't try to do everything, we do one thing properly and charge a flat fee with no commission, so our incentive is simply to get your brand in front of buyers and chase hard.
You see every step, approve every list, and own everything at the end. The target across the four months is five meetings booked.
Drinks brands, spirits, wine, beer, no-and-low, RTDs, that are export-ready and want into European markets without building an outreach machine from scratch. If you need a permanent commercial partner rather than a four-month campaign, we also run a full-service export agency through Far & Wide.
An agency. Real people build your buyer list, write in your voice, and chase replies. The technology helps us target and track, but the outreach is done for you.
Commission models reward the easy wins and quietly neglect the rest. A flat £500/month means we work every one of your sixty buyers hard, and you keep 100% of any deal you land.
Four months. That's the window the programme is built around, enough time for direct outreach, a portfolio send, and persistent follow-up.
After four months you can renew for a fresh sixty buyers in new markets, or step up to full-service export-agency support through Far & Wide.
Europe including the UK for the first wave, with new regions added as our enrichment matures.
Tell us about your brand and where you'd like to sell it. We'll come back with who we'd approach and how the programme would run on your brand.
