EU Market Entry

Bring US brands to Europe — VAT registration, CE compliance, EPR, logistics, and access to 29 marketplaces across the EU.

EU Market Entry is a comprehensive expansion program for American brands looking to sell across Europe — powered by the Commerce 4.0 framework and built on the same cross-border infrastructure we operate for our own 29-marketplace EU business every day. We guide US companies through VAT registration in key EU countries, CE marking and product compliance (REACH, RoHS, toy safety, food contact), EPR obligations for packaging and electronics, and customs clearance via our established European logistics network. Our team sets up Pan-EU fulfillment strategies including Amazon FBA Europe, manages marketplace onboarding across Amazon DE, FR, IT, ES, NL, PL, SE, BE, and UK, and handles full listing localization in 10+ languages.

Because we built this entire system for our own operations first, we know exactly where compliance gaps cost money and where logistics shortcuts create risk. Strong Brands United Corp. delivers this as a structured project with clear milestones — from regulatory readiness to first European sale.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How can a US brand start selling in Europe?

Through VAT registration, CE/product compliance, EPR obligations, European fulfillment setup, and marketplace onboarding across 29+ platforms. We built this infrastructure for our own 9-marketplace EU business as part of the Commerce 4.0 framework.

What is CE marking and do US brands need it?

CE marking certifies that a product meets EU safety, health, and environmental requirements. Most product categories require it for legal sale in Europe. We manage CE compliance for our own products and guide clients through the same process.

How many European marketplaces should a brand launch on?

We recommend starting with 2-3 high-potential markets (typically DE, FR, UK) and expanding from there. Our own expansion across 9 Amazon marketplaces followed this phased approach — it is built into the Commerce 4.0 framework methodology.
