Artisans on the go!
(October, 2009) The Centre for Women in Business has fostered another group of exporters. In 2010, a group of artisans from the Annapolis Valley heads to Denmark to explore export opportunities. Kisserup facilitated an interactive workshop to prepare the Artisans for the trip. The basic principles of international trade were communicated in an interactive forum, and participants were provided with resources to evaluate the market, conduct research, define payment terms, arrange logistics, and prepare the documentation required to enter the Danish market. Each participant was guided through the specific export requirements for their products, with consultation from representatives of the Canadian Border Service Agency. See www.msvu.ca/cwb/
