2Max Group Kenya Ltd

One of the best ways for companies to grow is by entering new markets. 2Max Group provides expert help by providing specific market knowledge that facilitates planning, development and execution of market entry strategies in Kenya.

A common challenge when entering markets in emerging and developing countries involves language barriers — English is frequently not the primary language and key information is often published only in non-English languages. To overcome this practical challenge, the 2Max Group market entry strategy kenya team includes specialized language experts.

Successful networking is a time-tested technique for opening doors and closing sales in traditional markets. However, the ability to network in new markets is another matter entirely. Key obstacles include cultural differences, legal guidelines and regulatory requirements — these factors often combine to form a strikingly different way of “doing business” in new surroundings. 2Max Group has been working and networking in environments like this for well over a decade and can readily lend their expertise to helping you network and thrive when you enter a new market.

Part of this process will frequently include white papers and customized reports with comprehensive analysis that will help decision-makers at all levels. Developing a market entry research strategy should be extremely detailed so that you “cover all the bases” before making a final decision and long-term commitment. To help you proceed along this path in a prudent fashion, 2Max Group offers 19 specialized techniques — each one is described in the following section.

Ways 2Max Group Can Help with Market Entry Research Strategies

Stepping into new territories is often accomplished via a team effort — as part of your team, 2Max Group can provide help in many different ways:

Network Creation

2Max Group helps you create your network by identifying partners such as distributors, suppliers, lenders, attorneys, joint venture candidates, accountants and franchise partners. This is one of the most important and delicate steps as you develop a market entry strategy.

Business Formation Support

2Max Group alerts you to detailed guidelines involved in business registration, setting up representative offices, establishing a virtual office and instituting an interim management team. This step is often impacted positively by earlier networking.

Cultural Research

This will help you to avoid many “surprises” by examining these aspects at an early decision point.

This ensures that someone is keeping an eye on what is happening in prospective new markets while you continue with your normal business routine.

Quantitative and Qualitative Research

We can identify suitable locations, provide on-site inspections, search for property acquisition partners, and communicate with tax advisers, legal experts and real estate agents. Our foreign language experts often play an instrumental role.
