Helping specialised businesses to find new markets around the world

Business in Austria

Austria is a prosperous and successful country, yet many outsiders think just of Sachertorte and lederhosen! Many are familiar with Austrian brands like Swarovski or Red Bull, without knowing that they are Austrian.

Austria is particularly strong in smaller and medium sized commercial, technical and manufacturing companies which can benefit from international marketing expertise, especially in the English-speaking world.

Eastern Europe and the Balkans

Austrian companies are also well placed to assist foreign businesses seeking to penetrate the new markets to the East and South East. Historical connections have been revived and many people in Vienna have family and business links to these areas.

The European Union now extends to the shores of the Black Sea and Slovenia and Slovakia are already in the Eurozone, with others are set to follow.

Many of these countries have been growing much more rapidly than those of Western Europe and they have been quick to embrace new ideas and new technologies.

Newly independent countries have emerged and are still emerging, but political and economic stability has greatly improved across the region.

PPM Consult is keen to hear from:

Austrian companies looking to expand their sales to new global markets.

Businesses seeking to sell into Austria, Central/ Eastern Europe and the Balkans.

PPM Consult maintains a regular presence in Vienna and is well placed to supprt clients in the region.
