AMERICAN WORLD WIDE INC. moves goods, companies and opportunities across borders — helping international businesses enter the United States, and American businesses reach the world. Based at Fiddler's Green in the Denver Tech Center.
Who we are
AMERICAN WORLD WIDE INC. is an international trade and business development company headquartered at Fiddler's Green Circle in Greenwood Village, Colorado — the heart of the Denver Tech Center. We work at the point where a company's ambition meets an unfamiliar market.
Most cross-border failures are not failures of product. They are failures of translation: the wrong distribution partner, a misread regulation, pricing built for the wrong customer, a contract that made sense in one legal culture and none in another. Our work is to make that translation correctly, before it becomes expensive.
We operate in both directions — bringing international companies into the American market, and taking American companies outward. The disciplines are mirror images of each other, and doing both keeps us honest about what actually works on each side of the exchange.
"Anyone can ship a container. Knowing who should receive it — that is the entire business."

Distributors, buyers and representatives — vetted, not merely listed
From first market study to the first shipment and beyond
Two directions
Every engagement runs one of two ways across the same border. The tools overlap; the questions do not.
For international manufacturers, brands and suppliers who see the US market clearly from a distance — and discover it looks entirely different up close.
For American companies with a proven product at home and a suspicion — usually correct — that it would sell abroad if someone knew how to get it there.
Services
Engagements are scoped individually — some clients need one of these, most need several, and a few need all of them in sequence over a couple of years.
Honest assessment of a target market: real demand, competitive landscape, price expectations, channel structure and the barriers nobody mentions in the brochure.
Identifying, approaching and qualifying distributors, agents and buyers — then facilitating the meetings and the follow-up that turn a list of names into a relationship.
Trade execution: sourcing, documentation, customs coordination, freight and warehousing — the unglamorous machinery that determines whether a deal actually happens.
A functioning American presence for foreign companies: entity maintenance, business address and telephone, and a local team answering when a US customer calls.
Ongoing commercial work once the door is open — following up with partners, chasing opportunities, and running the action plan we build together at the outset.
Counsel on the questions that don't fit a category: structuring an arrangement, pricing across currencies, or deciding whether a market is worth entering at all.
How we work
Your product, your capacity, your economics and your appetite for risk. Nothing useful gets designed before this is clear.
Evidence over optimism: demand, competition, channels, regulation and price. Including the finding that a market isn't worth it.
A concrete action plan agreed together — targets, channels, timelines and who does what, before anyone books a flight.
Partners approached, meetings run, shipments moved — then continued support as the relationship matures into real volume.
Client feedback
We had spent two years and a great deal of money trying to enter the US on our own, working through a distributor who turned out to be entirely wrong for our category. AWW told us that in the first month — and then found us the right one. Painful to hear, cheaper than another year of what we were doing.
Our product sold well domestically and we assumed exporting was mostly a shipping problem. It was a pricing and positioning problem. They rebuilt both for the target market, sourced two distributors, and stayed involved through the first year of orders rather than handing us a report and disappearing.
Maintaining an American entity from overseas is a hundred small obligations, any one of which can quietly become a problem. Having a real address, a real phone answered by real people, and someone competent handling the administration made us credible to US buyers in a way our website never did.
