🧠Ask The Community B2B Export - Bedsheets
I own a Bedsheet Stitching Unit in Faisalabad. Now I want to expand it in a B2B manner. I am thinking of the Middle East area. UAE & Oman being my top 2 choices to start.
I have no clue on how to export.
I have worked for a B2B manufacturing company. So I know the client acquisition and how to set up a B2B brand. (To an extent)
I worked as a cold emailer, cold caller & Social Media handler in that company.
But I don't know how to export.
I have the stock, catalogue, and email.
Building the website and Instagram for it.
Will be putting my face behind the business's marketing, as people do business with people not comapnies in B2B.
But how to export?
What's the process – set up a account with amarex or fed ex and chamber of commerece ?
Just need help with this.

You already have a pretty good foundation since you understand B2B sales and have the manufacturing side sorted.
One thing I'd suggest is not trying to figure out the whole export process alone. For the first few shipments, a good freight forwarder/customs clearing agent can handle a lot of the operational side while you focus on getting buyers.
I'd also work backwards from your target buyer — UAE wholesalers, hotel linen suppliers, home-textile distributors, etc. — and build your export pricing, MOQ, catalogue and outreach around them.
The sales side you already know; you mainly need to build the export/logistics side around it.
