A businessman once said, a business succeeds not because it is long-established or because it is big, but because there are men and women in it who live in it, sleep it, dream it, and build great future plans for it.
Our unique four-step plan creates transparent partnerships with brands, an essential element of achieving success.
Through its extensive network of contacts, TAVA will utilise samples and sales materials to assess the potential for your products.
This will also include advice on any amendments required to the product presentation to suit the needs of the Chinese consumer.
TAVA will not make false promises like many other importers. The potential is carefully judged before any further commitments are made to the principle.
In the initial stages, this is probably the most important step in the process. Importing products into China requires first class up to date knowledge of the CIQ requirements and the latest customs regulations.
TAVA will then guide you through this process explaining all aspects of the import documentation that is required. In addition, TAVA works with multiple ports of entry to minimise the risk of unexpected blocks at a particular customs post.
Once TAVA is confident that the principle has the capability to meet the product and logistical requirements of the China import process, a comprehensive strategic sales and marketing plan will be agreed.
This will include key elements such as:
At this stage, it is desirable for an exclusivity contract to be agreed to protect the interests of both parties.
On average it takes 3 months from the date of the first shipment from Europe to reach the TAVA warehouse and be available for sale.
From this point, TAVA will give written feedback to the principle every two months, adjusting the tactical plan as the market reality unfolds.
Six months into the launch, TAVA will work with the principal to review the original strategic plan and make adjustments where necessary.
