GLOBAL EXPANSION · U.S. MARKET PLAN

Landing in the U.S., organized around
project decisions — not encyclopedia entries

The United States is Yuno's priority market for global expansion. This page follows the order in which enterprises actually decide: settle the landing scenario and entry mode first, then evaluate states and cities, then sequence incorporation, product entry, and site workstreams.

01 — FIVE LANDING SCENARIOS

Settle the landing scenario first — everything else takes its order from it

Sales Office
Asset-light entry focused on customer development and local contracting, staffed by assignees plus local hires; prioritize entity, banking, and sales-tax registration.
R&D Center
Involves IP ownership, talent visas, data, and export-control topics; scale the team only after employment and IP agreements are in place.
Warehousing & After-Sales
Involves Importer of Record, spare-parts inventory, repair networks, insurance, and reverse logistics; leases must match import and insurance arrangements.
Manufacturing Base
Involves land or plant acquisition, planning permits, environmental due diligence, construction, and incentive negotiations — the longest scenario with the most preconditions.
Education Demo Center
Uses education and research scenarios as a pilot entry point, with clear procurement entities and responsibility boundaries; often paired with the robotics industry program.
02 — ENTRY MODES

Paths described as scenarios only — specific structures require professional assessment

Subsidiary / Branch
The common choice for control and liability separation; entity type and state depend on tax and financing plans
Distribution / Agency
Asset-light market validation; contract terms, after-sales liability, and brand control are the key issues
Pilot Project
Validate the scenario and compliance path at small scale before committing to a long-term structure
Joint Venture / M&A
Involves due diligence, foreign-investment review, and integration planning; assessed per project

The paths above are scenario descriptions, not legal, tax, or investment advice. Specific entry structures are determined by licensed counsel and CPAs based on the enterprise's situation.

03 — STATE & CITY SELECTION

Seven dimensions, scored item by item — not by impression

Yuno compares candidate states and cities with a site scorecard, item by item. Incentive and regulatory information follows current official sources and is dated.

01
Talent
Role supply, universities and labs, compensation levels
02
Customers & Market
Target-customer density, industry clusters, trade-show and channel radius
03
Logistics
Ports and airports, trucking corridors, warehousing networks and lead times
04
Total Cost
The combined cost curve of labor, real estate, energy, and insurance
05
Tax
State income tax, sales and use tax, nexus filing obligations
06
Government Incentives
State and city incentives, training subsidies, park policies and their conditions
07
Real Estate & Regulation
Land supply, planning-permit processes, environmental and sensitive-site review
04 — SETUP & OPERATIONS

Incorporation is only the start — operating obligations drive the cost

Corporate Governance
Governance documents, registered agent, shareholder and director arrangements, annual registration
Banking & Finance
Account-opening materials, payment and collection paths, bookkeeping, internal controls, audit readiness
Employment
Employment documents, compensation and benefits, workers' compensation and employer liability, state registrations
Insurance
The combination of general liability, product liability, property, and D&O coverage
Contracts
Localization of sales and procurement contracts, NDAs, IP and data terms
Annual Maintenance
State annual reports, franchise tax, license renewals, and the compliance calendar
05 — PRODUCT ENTRY

Before the product reaches the port, the evidence chain must be in place

Customs classification & duties
FCC & other testing / certification
Consumer / industrial safety standards
Labeling & manuals
Data & privacy
Product liability & recall preparedness

Certification and market-access outcomes are determined by the competent authorities and accredited laboratories. This page describes work items only and is not a compliance conclusion.

06 — LAND & FACILITIES

Lease or purchase — due diligence and permits come first either way

Lease vs. Purchase Assessment
Compare leasing and acquisition against capacity and funding plans, producing a decision checklist
Title & Environmental Due Diligence
Coordination of title chain, liens, and environmental assessments (Phase I/II)
Planning & Permits
Sequencing of zoning, construction permits, and fire inspections
Construction & Incentives
General-contractor coordination, milestone payments, and delivery of state and city incentive conditions
Yuno provides site-selection and transaction coordination. Real-estate brokerage, title, environmental, planning permits, construction, tax, and foreign-investment review are each handled by professionals with the corresponding qualifications. Land involving sensitive sites will be flagged for additional filing paths.
