    For New Zealand businesses exploring India

    Looking at India? Let’s start with a practical conversation.

    India is a large and varied market. Finding the right contacts, understanding how things work and deciding where to begin can take time.

    Feelivacation is an India-based company helping New Zealand businesses explore opportunities, arrange relevant industry engagement and develop practical working relationships.

    We believe in starting with a clear conversation about what you’re trying to achieve — and whether we’re the right people to help.

    Based in India. Working across international travel, professional programmes and business relationships.

    Why India, and why careful planning matters

    India offers opportunities. Understanding the market comes first.

    India’s scale and diversity can make it an interesting market for New Zealand businesses. It can also make it difficult to know whom to approach, which region to focus on or what sort of commercial arrangement makes sense.

    A useful first step is not necessarily a major investment. Sometimes it is a conversation with the right people, a visit to relevant facilities, an introduction to a potential partner or a better understanding of the local market.

    That’s where we aim to help.

      Tell us what you’re considering

      A short introduction to your business, your interest in India and the outcome you’re looking for.

      We discuss your objectives, the practical challenges and whether our capabilities are a good fit.

    3. 03

      Agree on a clear scope

      Where there is a suitable opportunity, we outline the proposed work, responsibilities, professional fees and any relevant third-party costs.

      Once the scope and commercial terms are agreed, we begin the agreed research, outreach, introductions or programme arrangements.

    No obligation to proceed following the initial conversation.

    Our way of working

    Straightforward relationships matter.

    Clear commercial arrangements

    We prefer written scopes, transparent professional fees and a shared understanding of costs.

    No hidden margins

    We aim to disclose the basis of our agreed remuneration and identify relevant third-party costs, rather than rely on undisclosed commercial arrangements.

    Respect for your information

    We treat commercial discussions, contacts and business plans confidentially and share information only as appropriate for agreed work.

    Honest conversations

    If something falls outside our expertise or requires specialist advice, we will say so.

    Long-term thinking

    We’re more interested in building credible, sustainable working relationships than making promises to secure a quick deal.

    These describe how we prefer to work. Specific obligations are set out in any written agreement and in our Privacy Policy.

    About Feelivacation

    A little about us.

    Feelivacation is an India-based company working across international travel, tailored professional programmes and business partnerships.

    Our work brings us into contact with organisations, industry participants, hospitality businesses and service providers in different markets.

    We are developing a more structured way to support selected international businesses that want to explore opportunities in India, starting with practical conversations and clearly defined engagements.

    We do not believe every enquiry needs to become a project. Sometimes the most useful outcome is a clear understanding of what makes sense — and what doesn’t.

    Our aim is to become a reliable long-term point of contact for organisations whose plans connect India with other countries.

    FAQ

    A few questions we often hear.

    Do we need to be ready to enter the Indian market before contacting you?

    Not necessarily. An initial conversation can help establish what you’re considering and whether there is a practical next step.

    Can you find buyers or distributors for our products?

    We can discuss relevant market exploration and potential introductions. Identifying a suitable organisation does not guarantee commercial interest, a distribution agreement or sales.

    Can you help arrange visits to Indian businesses and facilities?

    Yes, professionally coordinated industry visits are one of the areas we work in. Specific meetings, site visits and institutional access depend on the willingness and availability of the organisations involved.

    How do your fees work?

    It depends on the work required. We prefer an agreed professional-fee structure with a written scope and transparent treatment of relevant external costs. Any commission or representation arrangement would be separately agreed in writing.

    Can you help with export approvals, customs and regulatory compliance?

    We can discuss coordination with suitably qualified specialists where appropriate. We do not independently provide specialist legal, customs, food-safety or regulatory approvals, and we cannot guarantee them.

    What happens after we submit an enquiry?

    Our team reviews your enquiry and, if there appears to be a relevant fit, contacts you to arrange an initial discussion.

    Submitting an enquiry doesn’t commit you to a service or engagement.
