EU ENTRY ENABLEMENT

One of the brands that has chosen to partner with Bemakers to enable their entry into the EU is the Welsh spirits brand In the Welsh Wind.

"Working with Bemakers is perfect as it allows us to easily supply our product range to customers in key European markets and gives us access to markets on the continent," says Dan Jones, Export Manager.

In The Welsh Wind already has a strong, established presence in the UK, but expanding its presence and selling cross-channel in EU markets would have taken time, money and incurred mistakes had Bemakers not been involved.

Read in detail how In the Welsh Wind entered key European markets, with ease, with Bemakers.

“Founding Bemakers was a natural progression from my experiences with Andersen Winery. Witnessing firsthand the challenges of exporting and distributing our products internationally, I recognized a need for a solution. Bemakers was born from a desire to empower not just Andersen Winery, but countless other beverage brands facing similar hurdles, ensuring they have the tools and support to succeed in the global market.” Morten R.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

We're here to help answer any of your questions. Can't find what you need? Reach out to the sales team directly here.

Do I need to find a European Tax/ Financial representative to sell in Europe via Bemakers?

No, you do not. All of that is taken care of by Bemakers as per the market we operate in. No additional setup or monthly costs will be incurred for legal setup or handling. It’s all part of your monthly subscription.

Do I need to establish my own company in Europe?

No, you do not. Bemakers handles all of that in the markets where we operate.

Do I need to adapt my packaging for the European market?

Yes, if you sell alcohol in glass bottles, there is a maximum volume of 700 ml. Therefore, do not ship 750 ml bottles as they cannot be sold. Additionally, there are national rules and requirements for labels, recycling registrations, and fees. All of this is handled by Bemakers.
