Real Market Entry — Case Example
Stavoplast s.r.o. → Swedish Market

Slovak manufacturer of plastic moulding products for automotive, building and food processing industries. Path47 opened the Swedish market from scratch — identified qualified buyers, made first contact in Swedish, presented the company and built an active pipeline all the way to tender stage. The process demonstrated full market viability: the right buyers exist, they respond, and they evaluate. We are now in the second phase — with stronger positioning, sharper targeting and the market intelligence from the first run. That is what professional market entry looks like.

I've been opening markets between Sweden and Central Europe for over 30 years — not as a consultant who reads reports, but as a Managing Director and Country Manager who has sat across the table from procurement teams at Škoda Auto, Jaguar Land Rover, Volkswagen, Kia, Hyundai and PSA. I know how they evaluate suppliers. I know what they ask in the second meeting. I know when a deal is alive and when it only looks that way.

"The gap between Nordic and Central European markets isn't geography. It's language, trust, and cultural context. That's exactly what we bridge — from first click to signed contract."

Path47 is built on that experience. Through Swecon Consulting and Vizendo AB, we've supported companies across automotive, industrial manufacturing, construction and B2B services. Some engagements took months. Some took years. Some opened markets on the second attempt — with better intelligence than the first. That's what real market development looks like — and it's the experience you get when you work with Path47.

Export Financing & Insurance — in cooperation with Eximbanka SR
Your market entry backed by Slovakia's state Export Credit Agency

Path47 works in cooperation with Eximbanka SR — Slovakia's state-backed Export Credit Agency — to provide clients with access to export financing, credit insurance, and bank guarantees alongside market entry execution. Eximbanka covers the financial risk of your export. Path47 opens the market. Together, you get the complete package: someone who opens the door, and the financial backing to walk through it with confidence.

🇸🇪
Swedish Companies — Grant Funding Available
Cut your market entry cost by up to 40% with internationaliseringscheck

Swedish SMEs in Stockholm County may be eligible for an internationaliseringscheck — a regional grant co-funded by the EU that covers up to 40% of approved project costs (50,000–200,000 SEK). The grant supports market entry preparation into new international markets. Path47 engagements qualify as eligible project work. Ask us about the application process — we can help you structure the engagement to meet the criteria.

🔒 How It Works — Fees & Success
Monthly retainer is invoiced in advance (14-day payment term). In Start and Full Service, paid monthly retainers are offset against success fee — you don't pay double. Success fee is based on net sales to introduced parties, paid within 30 days of receipt, with quarterly reporting. Costs not included: travel, trade fairs, translation, certification, legal. These require advance approval. Path47 is your agent — not a party to sales contracts — and gives no guarantees on sales results.
How We Work

Rules we follow.
Every client. Every time.

These aren't policies written by a legal team. They're the principles Path47 is built on — and the reason the clients who work with us stay.

01

Trust

First client in has priority

If a company approaches me to open a market where I already have a client, I disclose it immediately — before anything is signed. My first client gets the right of first discussion. If there's a conflict, I decline the new business. Full stop.

02

Trust

I tell you when I can't help you

If your problem falls outside what Path47 actually does, I say so — and point you somewhere better. No scope creep. No billing for work that isn't my expertise.

03

Trust

I won't promise what the market won't deliver

If your product isn't ready for the Czech, Slovak or Swedish market, I tell you before you spend money finding out. An honest conversation upfront costs nothing. A failed market entry costs a lot.

04

Ownership

You own everything we build together

Contact lists, outreach copy, market research, pipeline data — it belongs to you. If we stop working together, you keep the work. No lock-in. No hostage data.

05

Expertise

We work in markets we actually know

Czech Republic. Slovakia. Sweden. That's it. Not 40 countries, not "all of Europe." Three markets, done properly — with 30 years of real relationships behind every introduction.

06

Expertise

We speak in the language your client thinks in

Not translated English. Native Czech, Slovak and Swedish — culturally correct from the first word. Because a deal that starts wrong rarely ends right.

07

Honesty

I tell you when a deal is dead

Most consultants keep reporting activity long after a prospect has gone cold — because activity looks like progress. I don't. If a door is closed, you'll hear it from me first, not from a monthly report written to justify the invoice.

08

Partnership

What you pay for — and what you get

You pay from day one — market entry fee and monthly retainer. We start working immediately. The market entry fee covers real work already done: analysis, research, contacts. The notice period is short by design — 1 month on Start, 3 months on Full Service and Partner. We don't need long lock-ins to keep clients. Results do that.

09

Partnership

I limit how many clients I take on

Capacity is intentionally limited. You get real attention — not a ticket number in a CRM. When Path47 is full, it's full. I'd rather do fewer things properly than many things poorly.

"In a niche market where everyone eventually knows everyone — reputation is the only real asset."
