The Mittelstand BVMW supports companies on their path to success and provides assistance at every stage of preparation for international expansion. With foreign offices in 40 countries, the association has a unique set of tools and a highly qualified network of experts. This extensive network serves member companies during their expansion. Knowing that a strong partner is at your side is well known to help get a foot in the door. Mittelstand president Mario Ohoven is also internationally present at discussions with representatives of states, business leaders and other key decision-makers. This ensures that the interests of SMEs are communicated at all levels. Continuously seeking dialogue and building connections opens up opportunities worldwide.

The heads of the foreign offices in the various regions have expertise in a wide range of areas. For an initial insight into selected countries and an overview of key figures and facts, it is worth researching our country reports.

China, Brazil, India, Russia and Mexico – the list of BVMW foreign offices is long. They understand regional specifics, know the tax and legal conditions, market characteristics, have access to the right information, speak local languages and “know someone who knows someone.” The representatives support our members in business at any stage of development and make their presence felt on site. The Mittelstand BVMW also helps connect with other German companies in the target country. After all, the extended BVMW network can also provide support.
