I'm seeking advice on launching my startup, which involves importing clothing from India and selling it in the UK. Currently, I work in the IT sector in the UK, but I'm now venturing into this import business. I've established strong connections in India and have already identified a few Western designers and a manufacturing facility. I’m also in the process of setting up my export firm in the UK.


At this stage, I’m looking to understand how to approach customers in the UK. Specifically, I’d like to know:


  • What type of customers should I target?
  • How challenging is it to find these customers?
  • What strategies can I use to reach them effectively?

I would greatly appreciate any insights or advice on these matters.
