About us

The DACH Export Agency helps to export goods, services, innovations, ideas, provides proactive support in approaching potential investors in M&A transactions and helps to promote franchise concepts. We speak to our clients in a language they understand in the DACH region, respecting all cultural specificities because we know the environment well.

The founder of the Agency is Helmuts Salnays, the long-standing head of the Latvian Investment and Development Agency (LIAA) in Germany. He worked for almost 20 years at LIAA’s representative office in Germany, has gained a wide range of experience in working with various export sectors, has built up a large network of contacts at all levels and has helped many companies to better understand their opportunities in the German market.

Helmut studied in Germany and has lived and worked here for more than 20 years. As Economic Counsellor at the Latvian Embassy in Berlin, he has been involved in organising state visits, seminars and forums, as well as trade missions for companies in various sectors.
