About Our Clients...

URMG generally represents North American industrial and consumer manufacturers with average annual sales in excess of $20 million. Among URMG's clients are many FORTUNE 500 companies. URMG is especially proud of the assistance it provided to General Motors Corporation in closing a $1.3 billion dollar deal with the Russian car manufacturer Autovaz.

URMG' forte, however, is working with medium-sized manufacturers who are interested in expanding their sales to the Russian and C.I.S. market through a well-organized distribution network. Some of our clients have provided their feedback below:

"We've been doing business in the CIS since 1991 and it would have been literally impossible without the consultation services of US-Russia Marketing Group. US-Russia Marketing Group has and continues to be that steadying force that enables us to continue expanding in this ever changing environment."

"I have been working with US-Russia Marketing Group for over 5 years. Having little or no experience or knowledge of the Russian marketplace I found URMG services to be the critical link in making business opportunities possible.

URMG has proven to have good contacts throughout Russia and maintain a staff which is very professional and attentive to my needs. My annual trips to Moscow, arranged by URMG, have been well organized and planned out.

I have now been able to establish qualified distributors in Russia and am beginning to secure contracts. Without URMG's assistance and guidance I am convinced this would not have been possible."

"It has been two years since we began to sell our products in Russia and it certainly was challenging to develop business in that country especially since our products(above ground swimming pools) had little exposure in Russia at that time.

Not only did US-Russia Marketing Group assist in identifying a motivated distributor, but they were also a tremendous help in breaking the cultural barrier between the two countries. URMG has been a very efficient link between Muskin and its new customers as far as assisting in various administrative transactions, the drafting of contractual documents and minimizing customs hassles which could have been a nightmare.

I simply want to say that, without their assistance, I do not think that a company like ours, which was inexperienced in the Russian market, would have been able to establish such a rich and durable relationship with Russia on our own."

"The impressions left upon me by my visit to Moscow will be long lasting and enduring. I am personally confident that we met and spoke to the primary individuals in Moscow in regards to the distribution of cosmetics and hair care products for greater Russia. My compliments on not only the amount, but the quality of the candidates that you exposed me to and a special note to the professionalism of your entire team. Every memeber of your team was invaluable to my efforts in exploring new distribution in Russia."

Dynisco to sell its testing equipment in Russia
PLASTICS NEWS REPORT

 
MOSCOW (March 6, 2008) -- Dynisco LLC of Franklin, Massachusetts, is marketing its Dynisco and Viatran product lines in Russia with the help of the US-Russia Marketing Group.

Dynisco held a sales training seminar in Moscow in mid-February and has set up a distribution network for that country.

“We have begun to receive orders,” said Matthew Carrara, vice president of sales and marketing for Dynisco Instruments in North America and South America and Viatran products worldwide. “Our expectations are for a dramatic growth in revenue within Russia in 2008.”

Dynisco has contracted with URMG of Stamford, Connecticut, for numerous services. Dynisco and URMG began discussions in January 2007.

Sandy Damm in Strausburg, France, is Dynisco's European distribution manager reporting to Carrara and is assisting in Russia with distributor meetings and customer visits. He joined Dynisco in 2005.

URMG is translating Dynisco's specification sheets and products manuals into Russian, helping Dynisco obtain Russian GOST-R pattern certification for importing products and providing linkage with new distributors, trade shows and marketing events. They have assigned within their Moscow Bureau a qualified Project Manager, who's a main power for Dynisco in Russia. The products include pressure sensors and related instrumentation for plastics and fluid processing and Oil and Gas industries.

“The relationship is strong” with URMG and its president, Leon Rozin, said Mr. M. Carrara via e-mail. “The translations and certifications will be completed in the next few weeks. We have 8-10 new distributors, provided to us by URMG with many more coming on board as a result of the recent meetings in Moscow.”

“Thank you for the support while we were in Russia, yourself and your staff are a great group of people and are very professional. 

Bill and I leave here with a sincere fondness and respect towards URMG and personally I hope it leads to many years of successful business and strengthening friendships".
