To be an agent for exporting "Bofen" liquor, first of all, you have to contact the brand side or its designated general agent. Taking Zhongshitong as an example, you can find its investment cooperation section through the official website, fill in the relevant information and submit the agency application, including your personal or company's basic situation, sales channel planning, etc.
Secondly, the brand side usually examines the qualifications of the agent, such as whether there are legal business qualifications, financial strength, sales network, etc. Having a mature liquor sales channel will be more advantageous.
Furthermore, after both sides reach a preliminary intention, it will involve contract signing to clarify key terms such as the agency area, task indicators, price system, etc. After that, Zhongshitong will provide product knowledge training, market promotion support, etc. By carrying out work such as stocking and promotion according to the contract requirements, you can officially become an agent.
