Bringing organic Mexican flavors to America
How a food entrepreneur built a US distribution network for her organic product line.
The Challenge
What was holding them back
Sofia's organic salsas and sauces were beloved in Mexico, but US distributors and retailers required a US business entity for contracts. Import regulations, FDA compliance, and payment terms all demanded she operate as a US company. Without it, Whole Foods and similar retailers wouldn't even take meetings.
The Solution
How StartGlobal helped
We formed Sofia's LLC in Wyoming and helped her understand the regulatory landscape. With proper US business structure, she could sign distribution agreements, open accounts with US suppliers, and build relationships with major retailers. Our compliance calendar kept her on track with annual filings.
The Results
What they achieved
- Signed distribution deal with regional Whole Foods
- Products now in 45+ specialty grocery stores
- Qualified for SBA microloan as US business owner
- Revenue increased 500% in 18 months
"My products were always good enough for the US market. I just needed the right business structure to prove it. StartGlobal made that happen."
