BPCC Trade: Our Products in Detail

Product 1: Bespoke Support Packages

•  We know small to medium companies are always looking for value support, so we’ll help

you analyse your opportunity in the market by putting together a client-specific package

of support from our team of Business Consultants and Researchers.

•  Each client is different, so each service differs too. To find out how the process works,

and what our existing client base says about us, get in touch.

•  Ideally combined with Product 3 (Instant Trade Data) and 4 (Content Translation) for a

lower cost route to market strategy.

Product 2: Company Debt Check

•  Establishing trust is one of the most important elements of building a business

relationship.

•  If you’d like to ascertain the reliability of your potential agent, partner or distributor, then a

check of the National Debt Register could be an ideal solution.

•  However access is costly so take advantage of a single use of the system from our

access. Or contact us to allow our researchers to help you check a company.

•  Cost: £18+VAT.

We know that analysing trade data is

time consuming but hugely useful for

exporters of goods. So we’ve built an

engine which analyses total demand

for 4000 individual product codes from

Poland and the UK’s performance

relative to competitors. What’s the

demand and is the UK present made

Simple.

Cost: First 3 codes free, then £10 per

code.

Product 3: Instant Demand Analysis

Product 4: Content Translation

•  In Poland, UK plc. stands for quality, reliability, innovation and skilled design. However,

UK companies often lose out to other markets because they fail to translate their

corporate material into the correct technical language. We say get it right the first time

you hit the market.

•  Working with accredited third parties, we take your content and translate it – either a

website or into a lower cost brochure. This approach works really well when looking to

approach customers, partners, agents or distributors for the first time.

•  Each company is different. All content differs. So our prices do too. Get in touch to find

out more.

Product 5: British Polish Business Centre •  500m2 of Grade A office space for UK

and Polish companies to do business.

•  Ideal central Warsaw location for

meetings, product launches, office

services, events, seminars etc. or just to

work out of whilst visiting.

•  Services for any registered Polish or UK

business.

The BPCC Trade Team went out of their way to give me an outstanding level of service and support when I recently made an

export enquiry. Their fast responses, knowledgeable staff and extensive links with business have proven invaluable in helping my

company exploit the potential of the Polish market. The level of service I have received has been above and beyond that which I’ve

ever had from any similar agency, UK based or otherwise.

Our Clients Say…

BPCC Trade has been extremely helpful in examining and advising upon different options for our business as we look to grow on the initial success

we've had entering the Polish market. BPCC Trade have been in contact on a weekly basis, introduced us to some really great contacts that we would

never have found on our own, and have shown they've sincerely cared about our business. It is a very refreshing experience to know that you

have them supporting you as you try to make a success of your business. I would absolutely recommend them to any UK exporter looking at the Polish

market.

Andrew Dobson, Export Manager, UBER

Given Poland’s considerable growth in recent years, we’ve made market entry here, along with Turkey, a top priority. The BPCC Trade Team have

been very useful in helping us understand the market and support us as we build a successful distributor relationship here. They’ve been in touch on a

weekly basis, and shown they really cared about our business development.
