the pre-export diagnosis :
NCT&I conducts an interview to evaluate your company’s export capabilities and define its objectives on the international market.
Selecting an export target market :
Targeting an export market means taking numerous data and information about the target country, its current regulations, (phytosanitary, prescriptive), the conditions of access, the political and economic environment, sector-specific opportunities, useful contacts….) into account.
NCT&I regularly organizes “market opportunities” information meetings to give companies a better grasp of the whole set of data to consider before starting an export process.

NCT&I regularly invites members to mutualize logistical export procedures for a first shipment or the participation in a showcase or an economic event.
