The Power of Connection: How the EMC Directory Helped Two Companies Find the Right Export Partners
Since 2023, the Export Management Company (EMC) Directory has provided a listing of vetted and experienced U.S. companies ready to help U.S. companies export. The core value EMCs provide is to develop international business opportunities and allow partner companies to focus on manufacturing and the US market.
Over the last year, dalakar hill, ltd., an Illinois-based EMC, was contacted multiple times by companies using the EMC Directory. These solid leads resulted in dalakar hill, ltd. working with two manufacturers to export to Mexico, Guatemala, Spain, and Fiji. The manufacturers, in the water filtration/wastewater industries, were able to export to new markets by working with dalakar hill, ltd.
With decades of international trade experience, dalakar hill, ltd. understands documentation, logistics, sales demand generation, and EXIM Credit Insurance which leads to efficient and optimal export transactions. Partnering with international trade experts like dalakar hill, ltd. can be a great way to expand internationally with limited export knowledge or experience.
Terrence Delaney believes the EMC Directory has not only been phenomenal in boosting his company’s efforts in finding manufacturers, but it has also been a vital service for companies looking to increase their global footprint. He believes working with an experienced EMC can help companies find partners relatively quickly with less risk than on their own. He believes customers are waiting for you!
Jumping into international trade can be overwhelming, but Terrence stresses the importance and value of the U.S. Commercial Service’s buffet of services which have aided his international trade efforts.
