Europe is an interesting market for babywear, importing around €3.5 billion every year. However, setting up a successful business relationship with a European buyer is difficult. You will need to investigate the various European markets, sales channels and potential buyers so you can set realistic goals.
If your only unique selling points are product and price, you will have a lot of competition. A better strategy may be to find a niche. This usually means less buyers and smaller orders, but better prices. Anything can be a niche: a new product group, a special fabric, a new production method, new functionalities. Try to be creative.

Exporters need to meet the EU’s requirements for food safety, quality, packaging and labelling to enter the European market for dry beans. Working together with importers and wholesalers is best because they are deeply integrated into the European market’s supply chain. To compete effectively, it is important to focus on factors like pricing and consistent availability during business conversations with importers in Europe.
Importers think that competitive price, consistent quality (size, colour, low defect percentage), compliance with EU safety standards, reliable lead times and proper documentation are key requirements. Retailers value certifications (BRC, IFS), product presentation, zero-defect tolerance, consistent packaging formats and sometimes ESG credentials. Wholesalers demand price competitiveness, steady availability and quality that meets foodservice requirements.
