    • Consultants - Click to Expand/Hide

    Apart from our trading activities, we are a consultancy company. We are good at what we do, and we do not spend large amounts of money on advertising and promotion, because we do not believe this is the best means of attracting business. We will stand or fall on what we do for our clients. If you would like to add to your raft of services the possibility to offer Russian business services, thereby helping us to promote our offering, then we will be glad to consider you a part of our team.

    Buyers - Click to Expand/Hide

    You are operating in a busy and sometimes chaotic world. You must ensure that your supplier can offer you consistent high quality, superlative service and competitive prices. We do not get involved in commodities, but for other enquiries, involving purchases from Russia, and how we can smooth the way for you, please contact us.

    Organisers - Click to Expand/Hide

    Should you be organising an event on Russia, we would be pleased to help you find speakers, and are always interested in speaking ourselves. It is in our view a far better way of prospecting for clients than advertising. And what do we give in return? Our presentation and its delivery will be crisp, cogent and concise. You will receive it on time, and it will be pragmatic rather than theoretical. We are regular speakers at events, and will do our best to leave your audience enthused. We will never charge for presenting to your audience, because you have put the work in, and you have given us the opportunity to speak to new potential clients.

    We have over the years spoken at events organised by the UKTI, numerous regional chambers of commerce, the Institute of Export, the RBCC, various private conference organisers.

    We can where desired provide an entire event for you, with speakers from various companies which have done business in Russia, and a case study picked from your region or business sector.
