Where are your export operations based?

What do you need a grant or tax concession for?

What do you need to do?

Preparing for export

As an exporter, you'll face very different financial challenges to those involved in selling to Australian customers.

Finding markets

Identifying export markets and finding buyers can be surprisingly expensive. You'll also need to assess the risks of each market.

Winning contracts

Access to finance can be a powerful tool in winning export business.

Financing production

Longer payment periods in export contracts can create a gap in your cash flow and strain your working capital.

Getting paid

With your buyer on the other side of the world, how do you make sure you get paid?

Expanding overseas

It's time to expand your business operations overseas—perhaps with a factory, warehouse or sales and support office.
