What is the best route for setting up a US importer to sell direct to a nationwide customer when distributor routes aren't viable?
For direct-to-customer sales in the US, members recommend using a technical importer service rather than attempting direct import yourself.
**Park Street** — The main recommendation from the community. They provide full-service import and distribution services, handling all necessary compliance and logistics to sell onto US distributors and customers. Contact Harry Kohlman and Chris Mehringer (owners). Website: https://www.parkstreet.com/ (note: requires login access; reach out directly to discuss your specific needs).
Members have successfully used this route for nationwide customer setups. This approach outsources the regulatory complexity and operational overhead of becoming a licensed importer yourself.
