    Hi all, we produce a unique cleaning system which has a very limited market in Ireland however has a huge market throughout the UK and Europe, can anyone give advice how to find partners abroad, is there an export/import directory available somewhere, I have contacted Enterprise Ireland and they stated they didnt think such a directory existed. I cant believe in this day and age that can true - any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    Enterprise Ireland are as much use as tits on a bull!
    This is from their own website:

    http://www.enterprise-ireland.com/CommonPages/Client_Knowledge_Services.htm

    You may be best contacting E.I.s UK or one of their European Offices as most of the E.I. staff here seem to be in a permanent snooze!!

    Try these as well and PM me if you need any other info:

    If its the sort of project that just needs to be sold - as opposed to all the other fluffy marketing stuff that EI and the like do. You should try ted in agentbase. He puts suppliers in contact with independent sales agents in the uk and elsewhere.

    I'm sure there is a fee but its not much. Many of the independent agent are ex big brand people that now prefer less complex monthly reports

    Also there must be events that you could go to as a deligate and just ask the suppliers. There must be a "commercial cleaning" conference in the NEC and in Frankfurt.
