Presencia Benelux provides commercial services for Spanish companies looking to enter, grow or strengthen their position in Belgium and the Netherlands.

Each service can be used independently or combined as part of a broader market-entry and growth strategy.
What can we do for your company
Benelux commercial representation
We represent your company in Belgium and the Netherlands as an extension of your own commercial team. We act on your behalf with customers, distributors, suppliers, partners and strategic contacts.
This service is ideal for companies that need a local presence but do not want to immediately take on the cost of opening an office or hiring their own regional sales manager.
What is included
- Commercial representation with customers and distributors.
- Presentation of your products and services in the local market.
- Visits to customers, suppliers and potential partners.
- Follow-up on quotations, proposals and commercial conversations.
- Support during commercial negotiations.
- In-person or hybrid meetings in Belgium and the Netherlands.
- Regular communication with your team in Spain.
- Activity reporting and structured market feedback.
Who it is for
Spanish companies with a clear B2B proposition and a genuine interest in Benelux that need a professional representative on the ground.
B2B business development
We help build commercial opportunities from the ground up or strengthen an existing pipeline. Business development is not simply about collecting contacts. It means understanding the market, identifying companies with real potential, starting conversations and progressing step by step towards solid commercial relationships.
What we do
- Define target company profiles.
- Carry out commercial prospecting in Belgium and the Netherlands.
- Identify decision-makers and buying stakeholders.
- Make initial contact and generate interest.
- Arrange qualified commercial meetings.
- Follow up on opportunities.
- Help adapt your commercial message to the local market.
- Build and develop a B2B pipeline.
Expected outcome
The objective is to create a flow of genuine, qualified opportunities that gives your company the evidence and market feedback needed to make informed decisions about further expansion in Benelux.
Meeting generation
We arrange meetings with potential customers, distributors, suppliers, commercial agents and strategic partners.
The goal is not to fill your diary with weak or irrelevant contacts. We focus on meetings that make commercial sense for your company and have a realistic potential to create value.
How the process works
- 1. We define the ideal target company profile.
- 2. We prepare the right commercial message.
- 3. We approach selected companies.
- 4. We qualify genuine interest.
- 5. We coordinate the meeting.
- 6. We follow up after the conversation.
Distributor and partner search
Finding the right commercial partner can make the difference between a slow market entry and an efficient expansion strategy.
We help identify distributors, importers, sales agents, integrators, technology partners and industrial collaborators that can represent, sell or complement your offer in Belgium and the Netherlands.
What we assess
- Sector fit.
- Geographical coverage.
- The type of customers they already serve.
- Experience with comparable products or services.
- Commercial capability.
- Reputation and professionalism.
- Genuine interest in working with a Spanish company.
Benelux market entry
This service is designed for companies that are not yet active in Belgium or the Netherlands and need to understand how to approach the market before committing more resources.
We help answer the questions that matter: Is there demand? Who buys? How is the product or service typically sold? Who are the main competitors? Which channels are most effective? What pricing is realistic? What should the first commercial steps be?
What it can include
- Initial market assessment.
- Identification of priority sectors and segments.
- Competitor analysis.
- Validation of the value proposition.
- Review of pricing position.
- Direct-sales or distribution strategy.
- Identification of initial target customers.
- Recommendations for the next commercial steps.
Fractional Benelux Country Manager
Many companies need someone to take local responsibility for the market, but are not yet ready to hire a full-time Country Manager.
Presencia Benelux can act as your fractional Benelux Country Manager: a flexible, on-demand commercial lead who represents your company and coordinates business development across the region.
Typical responsibilities
- Representing the company in Belgium and the Netherlands.
- Coordinating commercial opportunities.
- Maintaining contact with customers, distributors and partners.
- Attending meetings and trade fairs.
- Following up on proposals and negotiations.
- Reporting on activity and market feedback.
- Supporting strategic decision-making.
Key advantage
You gain professional local commercial leadership at a fraction of the cost of hiring a full-time senior executive for the region.
Customer and supplier visits
Physical presence still matters in many B2B sectors. A well-timed visit can strengthen trust, unblock a negotiation, resolve technical questions or reveal opportunities that would never emerge on a video call.
We can visit customers and suppliers on behalf of your company, or accompany your own team when it travels to the region.
Trade fair and event representation
Belgium and the Netherlands host a wide range of industrial, technology, logistics and sector-specific events. These can be valuable sources of contacts and market intelligence, but only when they are approached with proper preparation and follow-up.
We can represent your company, attend relevant events, gather market information, create contacts and carry out the post-event follow-up needed to convert initial interest into commercial opportunities.
Commercial negotiation and contract support
International sales processes often raise questions around commercial terms, expectations, timing, responsibilities and local requirements. We can support the commercial side of negotiations and provide an initial business-oriented review of agreements and proposed terms.
Where specialist legal advice is required, we recommend working with an appropriately qualified legal professional.
Support when establishing a local company
In some cases, a Spanish company may decide that the Benelux market justifies a more permanent structure. We can support the early stages of that process, help you understand the practical options and connect you with relevant local professionals where needed.
