Scale your business: the Gulf, the EU, Ukraine

Three ways in

Relocating a business is a project in its own right

Delays happen where responsibility is spread across several advisors. We run the entire move: legal structure, commercial model, financing and logistics.

Relocation

We move your existing production and equipment to a new country.

Greenfield

We build a new facility abroad from scratch: land, permits, construction.

Brownfield

We launch your business on existing facilities that you buy or lease.

What we take on

  • Legal structure in the new country

  • Commercial and contractual model

  • Financial model and capex plan

  • Finding a site, partners and suppliers

  • Finding investors and lenders

  • Logistics of the physical move

  • Permits and dealings with the authorities

  • Hiring an industry team
