Demand grew, but infrastructure couldn’t keep up.

Bay Plastics' European sales surged, but their existing setup couldn’t handle the increase. They lacked a licensed EU presence and needed local support to reduce delivery times and comply with regulations.

Inability to meet growing EU demand

As customer demand in the EU surged, the company struggled to keep up without a local base, risking lost sales and customer dissatisfaction.

No licensed local presence in Europe

Without an officially registered entity in Europe, the business faced legal limitations, making it difficult to build trust with partners or operate fully within the market.

Slow delivery times due to offshore logistics

Relying on shipping from non-EU locations caused significant delivery delays, impacting the customer experience and increasing operational costs.

Local consultation and setup with FirmNL experts

After being referred by their logistics partner, Bay Plastics met with Brian and Diego from FirmNL. Through in-person consultations, FirmNL coordinated the setup of a Dutch BV, ensured licensing, and connected the client with a local 3PL provider.

Licensed EU Entity Setup

FirmNL guided Bay Plastics through the process of forming a Dutch BV, enabling them to legally operate within the EU and establish a reliable base for scaling operations.

Regulatory Compliance Support

By ensuring full compliance with local regulations, FirmNL eliminated barriers to market access and positioned Bay Plastics to operate without legal or bureaucratic delays.

Local Logistics Coordination

FirmNL connected Bay Plastics with trusted 3PL partners in the Netherlands, significantly reducing delivery times and enhancing customer satisfaction across the region.

Hear It From Our Clients

Our European sales increased and we noticed we could not meet demand in our prior situation, so our logistics partner recommended we contact Brian from FirmNL. We made an in-person visit to the 3PL and Brian’s HQ. He and Diego consulted, and then set up a Dutch entity and got fully licensed and compliant with EU regulations. Since then, we’ve been compliant and meeting our EU supply and demand. The collaboration cut delivery times dramatically.
