About Us:

Albion (Overseas) Ltd is a company dedicated to the advancement of business in Russia. The business is run by three directors, two British and one Russian. All the employees of Albion are fluent in Russian and extremely experienced in the art of conducting business in Russia and Western Europe.

Albion was set up in the mid-nineties, originally to supply construction products to Russia, although the trading portfolio now includes a very broad range of products.

Albion also offers consultancy, including short-term assistance - finding a distributor, helping with certification, etc. Albion's long-term consultancy covers business development and the ability to offer clients a Moscow rep service amongst other things. For an affordable fee, the client is provided with his own Moscow office and a member of staff to drive the business forwards, without the usual bureaucracy and expense. This gives clients the ability to sell to a much larger client base for local currency.

Trading: We are among other things exclusive distributors for McAlpine in Scotland, and have recently begun working with Marley. Based in the UK, we have offices and warehouses in Moscow, and a network of sub - distributors throughout Russia, administered from Moscow and Saint Petersburg.

Mentoring:

We assist companies to establish business in Russia, helping them to become independent quickly. Albion increases clients opportunities, and can resolve specific problems, troubleshooting on a case by case basis. Our trading experience and infrastructure means we are familiar with cross-border trade, Customs, certification and so on, and can offer anything from a one-off list of potential distributors in Russia, to a full infrastructure. The latter can include a staffed Moscow office with dedicated telephone line and warehouse facilities. With this, we also offer assistance with procedural issues and with logistics. The client is never left alone. And it is not expensive.
