ABOUT US We are a UK based business, with offices and staff in China. As well as Direct product sourcing, we offer buying trips and exhibition visits in and around China. Our first 'buying trip' was in April 2006 where we organised a visit for a selection of buyers to 'The Canton Fair' in Guangzhou . During the break between the two phases of the fair, some of the group travelled on to Beijing , visiting the Great Wall, The forbidden palace and Tiannamen Square . Who says you cant mix business with pleasure.....? We returned in October, to the Autumn Canton fair, this time taking a further group of clients (and one original visitor from the April trip). After the business had been completed, we organised a well deserved break on the paradise Island of Hainan , staying in 5 star luxury of the Sanya Marriott and the remote 'Treasure Island' setting, known as Wu Zhi Zhou Island. Many clients that had already visited China on business had realised the hard way, how difficult it is to communicate. Even with address details in hand (written in Chinese) it is sometimes not enough to get you to your destination. If you cannot speak the language well you are going to struggle to leave your hotel room, let alone do business! We have now extended our services to offer this buying trip for individuals that want the benefit of buying their goods directly in China, increasing profits by cutting out the middle man. Please contact us for more information on all or services and packages, including a 'Frequently asked questions' page and photos of previous trips.  Want to import but have no idea of procedures or how to go about it? We will be able to advise you on all aspects of sourcing, getting prices, the shipping of the goods, the import procedures and answer any other questions you may have. Once you finish this trip you will be in a position to start importing directly from China and have trusted contacts that you can call on for advice. If you are in need of support once you have returned from your trip, we will be available to assist you further, we are only a phone call or email away.
