Buisness thread: questions and answers

[cashmoney]

Couldn't find a buisness thread so I figured I'd start this one....




My question is, if you want to export some goods to a few countries in europe....how would you go about it? For example, lets say you have a company in Russia who wants a certain protein ( kind of like soy protein) and they want about 20 tons of it each month along with 150 tons of a metal (like iron in vitamins) as well. But, it's too expensive to buy in Europe being as it's really cheap here in the states and they need someone here to buy it and export it to them over seas (They have restrictions there where they personally cant buy it from the U.S., they have to have a middle man.) Does anyone know how one would go about to do this? Do you have to have a license, permit? I'm talking about a lot of stuff, not something UPS can do for you.
