International Partner Search
The International Partner Search (IPS) helps you find potential agents, distributors or other partners without even leaving the U.S. The U.S. Commercial Service in Lebanon will contact a large group of potential Lebanese partners using the marketing materials you provide, and then identify companies that are interested and capable of becoming a viable representative for you in Lebanon. The IPS report on these companies includes: |
|
- Contact information and basic business profile on as many as five potential Lebanese companies and representatives
- Each company's opinion on the market for your product and/or service
- The U.S. Commercial Service opinion on the contact's level of interest and overall suitability
- Competition from local or third-country firms
- And more!
