The International Apparel Federation (IAF) has unveiled an innovative export support solution, 'Gateway to Europe,' designed to streamline and enhance the global fashion export process. This comprehensive service covers marketing and sales, logistics and fulfillment, customs and VAT, financial organization, and compliance with regulations.

Fashion exportation across continents is a multifaceted challenge, requiring expertise in marketing, agent and distributor selection, timely product delivery, and cost-effective fiscal management amidst a complex legal landscape. 'Gateway to Europe' addresses these hurdles by leveraging a network of industry specialists chosen for their track records and fashion industry focus.

One unique aspect of this initiative is its alignment with IAF's global industry association members. Powered by Greenway Logistics, 'Gateway to Europe' presents an invaluable resource for associations to enrich their memberships. National fashion industry associations can collaborate with 'Gateway to Europe' to offer a plug-and-play export service to their members, greatly increasing their chances of success.

This initiative empowers fashion and sports industry associations to facilitate business expansion for their members. To kick off, 'Gateway to Europe' will host a webinar for members of the Canadian Apparel Federation, with plans to extend its services to other non-EU countries in the near future.
