Executive Discretion

Why U.S. Market Entry Is Difficult

Entering the U.S. independently is possible. Doing it efficiently is another matter.

The American food market rewards manufacturers who arrive with credible representation, the right distributor introductions, regulatory readiness and a positioning strategy adapted to U.S. category dynamics. Without these, even strong international brands lose months — and capital — to avoidable friction.

  • Fragmented distribution across 50 states and multiple channel tiers
  • Buyer relationships built on years of trust, not cold outreach
  • FDA, FSVP and labeling complexity for imported food products
  • Category positioning, pack-size and price-point adaptation
  • Capital-intensive trial periods at retail and foodservice
  • Limited margin for error in a relationship-driven industry
