Developing a Direct Import Program from Asia using Hong Kong

Sourcing in Asia is still of vital importance and the Direct Import Program is an ideal solution for importers, selling direct to large customers. 
 

The Direct Import Program is designed for businesses that: 
 

• Are sourcing from Asia and reselling in their home country or third-party destinations 
• Are selling to large customers who accept direct shipment 
• Want to centralize their sourcing function in Asia 
• Need to have better control over quality 
• Need to have better control over receipts and payments 
• Want to sell on FOB Asia terms 
 

If you are sourcing or buying from Asia and selling your products to large customers in your home country or third-party destinations, then the Direct Import Program can help you achieve greater competitiveness and efficiency. The program enables you to centralize your sourcing function in Asia, thereby giving you greater control of the quality standards of your products and create savings from economies of scale.

Save your Brand and Register your Trademark in China

Join our on-demand recording NOW for Save your Brand in China. 

Protecting your brand in China can be hard.

You are excited about entering the Chinese market, going to networking events and getting your first business deals and transactions rolling. 

But, there is nothing worse then placing faith and building trust with people who deceive you, is there?

IP squatters and hijackers in China register trademarks under bad faith to either re-sell the brand name or use it for their own business to leverage off of the success of the original trademark owner from overseas. 

IP squatters or hijackers can be your distributors, your suppliers, your vendors, your employees. They can be anyone. 

Have you experienced this?

I do have an easier way for you. A way to protect your brand - one of the most important assets of your organization - and vet those you would be working with closely. 
 

How to start your business with your China accountant

If you are starting a China business on a limited budget, you have probably spent some time trying to figure out where you can cut business costs and do more on your own to stretch the funds you have available.

One area you may consider doing it yourself instead of hiring it out is accounting.

If you have a Chinese accounting background and a solid understanding of business finances, this may be a good place to cut costs. However, if you lack experience in managing the books of a China business and expect to learn as you go, you should think twice.

Managing your own Chinese accounting system incorrectly can hurt your business not only now, but also in the long-term.

Watch this on-demand recording where we provide a rundown of the things a Chinese accountant can do for a China business of a foreign investor.

A Chinese accountant is  VITAL resource to add to your China team. 

How to choose the right people for your corporate management in China

Corporate governance has to do with how (business) organizations are run and managed. 

Organizations in China with proper corporate governance have accountability and transparency. 

People empowered to take decisions at those organizations know that their actions will be seen and judged by others. They are part of the appointed corporate management structure of the Chinese company. Therefore, those officers are more likely to act in ways that benefit the organization’s stakeholders.

It is important to choose the right people for your corporate management in China.

Watch this on-demand recording if you are looking to finalize the appointment of the corporate management for your China business. We will be analyzing who should hold these roles and what responsibilities they hold. ​

China is the world’s second largest economy and an important market for any international company. Even if you are a small player, it’s important to think big and have a China strategy in place.

China can be a difficult market to crack and even more so for start-ups. It is a common journey that businesses go through, and it is more predictable than most people realize.

From hundreds of entrepreneurs, companies and leaders from the USA, UK, Australia, Canada, and Europe, we have learned that there are certain problems and frustrations that come along at very predictable times.

More importantly, there are also certain ways to overcome them if you know the journey ahead of you.
