Searching For A Striking Or Personal Business Name

Posted by Anonymous on 12/17/2015 at 5:13 PM ET 250 Points
I'm searching for a striking, personal or creative name for a new Import Export small business.
It's a partnership, Barwise and Bekker. Thus maybe -
Barwise Bekker Enterprise?

Dealing with South African exports, Zebra Crossing, or Big 5 game (something)?

Would like some brainstorm..

    Unless your names are well-known/respected, don't use them (it only makes selling your company that much harder).
    If your name is for B2B use, then pick a name that makes it obvious what you sell/offer (South African Exports).

    What products are being exported and to who?

    I have not started yet. Planning export from South Africa to Canada and US and some export
    to SA. I'm South African staying in BC, Canada at present. Wanna do some travel business as well, like Africa and Australia. Canada has an interest in African export that I know of, still have to do some more research

    Want to start with dry fruit and nuts, some candy, food products and some tourist gift items, selling to larger chain stores. Possibly a small shop, coffee shop and online sales.

    I want to start small and expand as I grow in experience. Hope it make sense and does not sound too ambitious for a start

    These names are great, but I can't associate with is, thanks for that

    Great Escarpment Exports
    Great Kardo Exports
    Cape Fold Mountains Exports

    What about: "Kalihari Traide (Import Export)" with a logo that reads "Import Export" ?
    Kalihari is relative known by different people and is associated by a few African countries,
    included South Africa. I wanted it original, striky but can't find something that I'm
    confertable with as well

    With a logo kind of like one of the following:
