Alliance experts

International business advisors in over 30 countries

Alfred started Alliance experts in 2010 in the Netherlands, and engaged in 2011 with the first consultants in Singapore and later Hong Kong. From there the network has grown to people in over 30 countries.

Since that time Alliance experts has supported hundreds of clients with their market entry strategy, finding the right distributors or other sales channels or finding suitable suppliers abroad. 

As founder and managing director, Alfred has overseen all project execution, working with clients and consultants in dozens of countries, and was responsible for marketing and product innovation. 

In 2024, following his passion, which is more marketing and finance than managing a broad network, Alfred has converted the well-visited Alliance experts website into the Exporteers website with over 400  articles and a strong focus on market entry business cases. 

Clients can now do business directly with a selection of the individual advisors that Alfred worked with throughout the years.
