Richard Wagner and Company (RWCO) supports the business development needs of clients in the expansion of market access to overseas customers.
Local Knowledge
We use our proprietary worldwide network of more than 30 RWCO commercial consultants across the globe, each armed with local business and market knowledge relevant to more than 73 countries around the world. Therefore, our clients have the benefit of real-time information from resources on the ground across a diverse collection of industries, regions, and cultures.
Partnering
In most foreign business environments, the local government places a restriction on the control and operation of a business by a foreign entity to ensure that local businesses remain viable. Therefore, a critical step within the international business development function is the identification, vetting, and onboarding of stable business partners in a given country. RWCO facilitates communications and coordinates interactions with potential business partners to ease the client's entry into markets abroad.
