Business
with and in Poland!
This page is for those, who want to make business with or in Poland. Below you
can read about “Selling products in Poland”, “Purchasing products in
Poland” and “Production of products in Poland”.
Selling
products in Poland
It can be difficult to penetrate the Polish market. To start a foreign
company in Poland takes time and is often more financial demanding than expected.
The laws still have not changed to the EU standards and there are many polish
laws which are very strange for foreigners. Poland is an interesting market with
more than 40 million people, but it’s important to know the market and the
culture. Poles are very focused on the price and not as much on quality and
characteristics and it can be very difficult if not impossible to penetrate the
polish market without a good network. “Friendship” deals, recommendations,
payment for the “right” information and connections are still a very
important part in Poland.
It’s
often an advantage to start with a polish partner, who has the “right”
contacts, but even that is not easy. Many polish companies are offering
“everything” and they can do “everything”, but is a good idea to be
patient and evaluate, what the polish company can offer.
Purchasing
products in Poland
There are many products that are interesting to buy in Poland. You can find
a description of many of the products and services that are cheap in Poland in
the STETTIN Restaurant & Shopping GUIDE but there are of course more. The
polish złoty
has devaluated a lot the last couple of years which just made it even cheaper to
buy products in Poland. The prices have increased a little since the entrance in
the EU the 1st of May 2004, but you can still save a lot for the next
few years.
Products or services that are labour intensive to produce are extremely cheap in Poland. There are many non-educated poles that have a net salary of 1.000 złoty or 1 euro per hour. If you want to buy products in Poland for re-sale then it’s a good idea to evaluate if they are labour intensive to produce. There are, of course, many product categories that are cheaper in Asia but it has to be considered that Poland is very close to the rest of Europe and part of EU.
