What exclusive partnership means
An exclusive regional partner may receive stronger territory discussion, channel coordination or market protection, but only when the partner can demonstrate credible sales ability, installation support, service planning and long-term market investment.
Why exclusivity needs performance targets
Exclusive rights without performance can block market growth. RKOVE prefers clear annual targets such as project volume, sales amount, showroom development, dealer recruitment, marketing activity or strategic hospitality projects.
Regional protection versus exclusivity
Regional protection can be a lighter first step that reduces channel conflict while the partner proves performance. Full exclusivity should require stronger annual commitments, review periods and market-development responsibility.
What RKOVE evaluates
RKOVE may review company background, market coverage, financial capability, sales team, installer network, showroom plan, project pipeline, after-sales ability, branding alignment and willingness to follow annual policy updates.
A practical first-year approach
A first-year strategy may begin with reviewed access, initial samples or projects, dealer kit review, territory discussion, performance targets and a limited review period before stronger regional rights are granted.
