Get the best out of your German contacts

Germany has for years been Denmark’s largest export destination. Europe’s strongest economy is a highly competitive market - open for those with the right will and determination.

Not so many years ago, Germany was dubbed “the sick man of  Europe”. The enormous cost of reunification had proven to be a heavy burden for its economy throughout the 90ies, but recent growth and its highly competitive industrial sector confirm once more Germany’s status as an economic powerhouse.  

Relocare will help your company in taking the challenge and do business in this complex market of 80 million inhabitants. With the right cultural understanding, sales tools and determination, Danish businesses are well-positioned to take advantage of current economic recovery taking place just south of the border.

As a rule of thumb, good preparation is the key. Germany shares borders with 10 neighbouring countries, so it’s good to keep in mind that German firms are used to business proposals from virtually all directions. Picking you among your rivals will not only require a competitive product, but in many cases detailed product specifications which you should know by heart. Be prepared for Teutonic thoroughness!

Relocare will prepare you for this aspect of German culture, plus give you the best tools to use cultural knowledge as a door-opener. Having heard more about Germany than Autobahn,  Oktoberfest and BMW may leave you with the decisive competitive edge. In fact, Germans are fond of their regional cultures, their local dishes, wine cellars and beer gardens – best experienced in the smaller towns, often in striking medieval settings.

Cities like Berlin, Frankfurt or Duesseldorf have developed into cultural melting pots, thus representing the modern, international face of Germany. However, in the countryside you still will find striking differences in mentality, culture, even language. The stubborn Frisian from the North Sea might approach things differently than the outgoing Rhinelander, the buttoned-down Bavarian or the straightforward Saxonian…. anticipating these differences is part of Relocare’s preparation package – the strategy for your success and positive experiences south of the border
