INTERNATIONAL REPRESENTATION SERVICES
 Since 1991,
Albion International Services, Inc.
has
been assisting companies with their international development. This falls into
two categories of Agency/Partner Search and USA Representation.
This
is what Albion does best!
Agency/Partner Search:
Through our extensive industry experience and network of worldwide affiliates,
Albion is able to recommend overseas agents/partner in the USA and overseas to
our Clients. Our services involve undertaking an extensive search of all
possible candidate agents/partners in the specific location, pre-qualification
of the possible candidate and recommendations to our Client. Not only does our
Client benefit from being able to select the overseas agent/partner available
but also, their name can be kept in strict confidence. Albion, through its international affiliations, is also available to offer
Contract Management Services
to ensure a smooth
transition if needed.
USA Representation:

delegation and representation, break-bulk services or a full-fledged operation.

Albion's clients use us for partial or full range of services offered
because:
-
The
principals of Albion are both accountants with extensive (20+ years) freight
forwarding experience. Albion's employees include a Controller and
support staff who also have extensive financial and freight forwarding
experience.
-
Albion fees are less than the cost of
hiring a part or full time bookkeeper and we provide more expertise than
available to one person.
-
Albion provides an independent
resource to the parent company and oversees (but does not manage) their US
operations.
-
Albion allows the management and
staff of the US operation to concentrate on Sales and Operational problems
and relieves them of the administrative and financial burdens that normally
hamper development.
