Catalan term or phrase: exportar anant a
This is from an interview with a woman who is talking about her father, the previous owner of a fashion chain, and what he was doing with the chain when he was running the company. The company has no stores in Paris, never has, and she is talking with the interviewer about where they would like to have new stores.

XXX= client name, the name of the fashion chain

So, the best location for a new XXX store would be Barcelona or París?

It’s not up to me, but those are great fashion cities. "El meu pare va començar a exportar anant a París, el centre de la moda. I Barcelona té una màgia que atrau als nostres clients i que nosaltres també veiem"

Explanation:
or first started exporting by taking trips to Paris, etc.--something along those lines.

I don't think it matters that they didn't have a store in Paris--the point is that there is a business (or perhaps sentimental) connection with Paris.
