Our Team

ABL is a family business and as such brings a sense of family to all our customers.

Big corporations often have their own offices in foreign countries so can readily access local resources, this is not the case for many SMEs (Small to Medium Enterprises). This is where ABL can help. Based in the UK we have partners in China and Africa who have knowledge of and direct contact with local markets, manufacturers and suppliers. As our contacts are native to those areas they better understand the intricacies of local business practices enabling you to avoid the concerns often found trying to communicate in foreign markets.
