Avoiding those usual destinations, it is interesting to also pay attention to the markets that do not make up the lot of the main applicants, especially because they show increasing behavior in their global purchases, in this aspect it can be emphasized:

• Poland: It is a country that represents 2.1% of world imports, but it has also had a continuous and constant increase in its acquisitions in the last five years, that is to say that from 2015 to 2019 its purchases rose by 6.6%.

In general terms, exporters in the cleaning industry sector should know that global trends indicate that commercial cleaning will be the segment with the greatest promise, especially due to the direct relationship with the health sector that constantly requires disinfection , as well as large companies that demand a safe and disinfected environment for their workers. In the same way, and given the global crisis, self-employment is expected to increase in the coming years, especially the residential cleaning business.

For these reasons, our recommendations for exporters in the sector are: 

1. Foreign markets selection: Emphasize on international markets with capacity for continuous demand and growth, as shown by the markets of the United Kingdom, the United States, Singapore, Poland, Russia and Canada.

2. Target segment determination: Knowing that they are demanding and highly competitive markets, it is suggested to accurately determine the target segment to attack, be it commercial, residential or industrial cleaning.

3. Adjusted market Exportable offer: Have an ecofriendly alternative within the exportable offer, in this sense it is necessary to bear in mind the new tendencies for environmentally friendly products, especially taking as a reference the attitudes and behaviors of consumers of These suggested markets, who prefer the use of organic products in every way.

4. Logistics solutions: Offer shipping and delivery solutions, that is, be willing to sell in DDP condition as it is highly valued by the sector. 

5. Payment terms: Offer payment terms and alternatives, financing in commercial operations, and have the possibility of receiving payments online. 

6. Cross-border E-Commerce: Having the possibility of placing orders online, it is worth noting that this has been maximized in the update, especially because it allows buyers to take advantage of discounts, evaluate product alternatives and assess fast shipping.
