Background
Area of expertise.
Back in 2003 I started my career in international trade as a procurement clerk for a big machinery holding which ran four factories in the European part of Russia. Over the years I gained experience and worked as CPO in different companies and built my proficiency in the following areas
- Tools and machinery
- Beauty and cosmetics
- Microbiological nutrient media for labs
- Industrial construction
- Packaging solutions
In their words
What customers say once the invoice is paid.
We entered the market with zero local contacts and a lot of uncertainty. Our trade agent changed that completely. Within months the team introduced us to the right distributors, arranged meetings with key industrial buyers, and helped us navigate complex import and certification requirements. Their knowledge of the local machinery sector is outstanding.

Co-founder, DAGSO
Working with a local trade agent was the smartest decision we made for our expansion to the Russian market. They understood our packaging product range immediately and knew exactly which food, construction, and logistics companies to approach. They handled everything from regulatory labelling to logistics coordination and even supported local marketing campaigns.

CSO, IP Atadurdyev
Our products require very specific handling, documentation, and customer education. We needed a local partner who could not only sell, but also understand the technical requirements of laboratories, research institutes, and quality control departments. Our trade agent built strong relationships with key accounts, ensured proper cold-chain and import compliance, and provided valuable feedback that helped us adapt to the local market.

FAQ
Asked before nearly every project.
How long does a project usually take?
A full product engagement runs six weeks end to end. An identity is three to four. A second opinion is one week. If your deadline is tighter than that, tell me early and I will say honestly whether it fits.
Is the price fixed?
Yes, wherever the scope is defined. One number, one payment schedule and a written list of what sits inside it. Anything outside becomes a conversation before work starts, never a surprise line on an invoice.
Can you work alongside our engineers?
That is the normal arrangement. I join your stand-ups, write specs in whatever format your team already uses, and stay reachable for a month after handover so questions get answered rather than guessed at.
What lands in my hands at the end?
Source files, a component library with every state documented, a token sheet, exported assets and a written spec covering behaviour and edge cases. Build engagements also include block patterns and a configured theme.json.
Do you take small pieces of work?
Sometimes. A single landing page, a pricing rewrite or a one-week review all fit comfortably. Anything larger tends to work better as a short sprint than as hours scattered across a quarter.
Who owns the work at the end?
You do, completely, once the final payment clears. Files transfer into your accounts rather than living in mine. I only ask permission to show the work publicly, and I will keep it private if you would rather.
