01
Name the move
Territory, channel or product. We write down the decision and the date it has to be taken.
What we take on
Expansion without a month-six surprise
We model the entity, the VAT position, the people costs and the cash lag. Then we write the operating calendar so the new line does not land on an already stretched close.
- Entity choice and cross-border tax
- VAT, permanent establishment and transfer pricing basics
- Working-capital for a new site or SKU
- Group reporting from day one
The work
Before the lease is signed
02
Cost the lag
Cash, VAT and people. Expansion fails in the working capital, not in the slide.
03
Choose the vehicle
Branch, subsidiary, partnership. Mira’s desk owns the tax; Elena owns the operating calendar.
04
Open the books
Chart of accounts, close dates and a pack the group can read in month one.

A second site that waited
We paused an opening that would have doubled rent before the first site had a stable contribution. Six months later the group expanded on a model the bank would fund.
