U.S. Launch for Manufacturers Going Direct
You've spent decades making a great product. Now sell it directly in America.
Manufacturers that have never sold direct face a steep first step — and the U.S. is a demanding place to take it. We build and run the entire direct-to-consumer and marketplace business for you.
What changes when you enter the U.S.
Why the U.S. is different
The things that stall manufacturers — handled
Your product already sells. What stops most brands isn't demand — it's the operational and regulatory maze. We've walked it many times.
Built from the ground up
No storefront, no U.S. entity, no direct-selling experience. We build the whole business — entity, store, marketplace, and operations.
Leadership included
You don't have an eCommerce team. We become your fractional U.S. leadership and run it until you're ready to hire.
DTC + marketplace
We launch you where your buyers are — a Shopify store you own plus Amazon and the marketplaces that fit your category.
Operations handled
U.S. fulfillment, returns, sales tax, and compliance — the operational backbone stood up and run for you.
Protecting channel
Going direct without upsetting wholesale takes care. We structure pricing and positioning to protect existing relationships.
Profitable growth
Once you're live, we scale demand against real margin toward a durable U.S. business.

Brands like yours, already selling in America
Launching the first direct-to-consumer business for one of Chile's largest salmon organizations
BluGlacier — the U.S. joint venture between Chilean salmon producers Blumar and Ventisqueros, and one of the largest importers of Chilean salmon to the United States — wanted to move beyond wholesale distribution and launch its first direct-to-consumer brand, OSHĒN.
Building the U.S. commerce operation for one of Europe's largest juvenile products brands
Kinderkraft had become one of Europe's leading baby gear manufacturers and was committing millions of dollars to U.S. inventory — but needed a single team to build and run its American eCommerce business.
Questions
Common questions from manufacturers
We have never sold direct. Can you build the whole thing?
Yes. We build the entire business from the ground up, entity, Shopify store, marketplace listings, fulfillment, and operations, and run it as your team until you are ready to hire.
Will going direct upset our wholesale or distributor relationships?
It does not have to. We structure pricing and positioning to protect existing channels while opening a direct one, so the two support each other instead of competing.
Do we need a U.S. entity and an eCommerce team in place first?
No. We handle the U.S. entity, banking, and operations, and we act as your fractional eCommerce leadership, so you do not need to hire a team before launching.
Which channels should a manufacturer start with?
It depends on your category and margin. Usually a Shopify store you own plus Amazon as the anchor marketplace, sequenced deliberately rather than launching everywhere at once.
