POSITIONING FOR PROFIT
The Brand Advantage
If you want your eCommerce business to make an impact, you’re going to need to stand out from the crowd.
And to do that, you need a product that isn’t already being done by everyone else.
You need something unique. Something special. Something your customers will love and others will wish they thought of first.
What’s the best way to do that? Well, the answer is simple — you create your own branded product. We can help find you the right manufacturer to bring your brand to life.
It’s a fact, people pay more for brands.
You see this everywhere; in the supermarket, pharmacies, department stores – there’s always a “home brand” or “generic” (unbranded) line of goods which sells for less. And then there’s the “Premium” (branded) goods that sell at a higher price.
Creating your own branded products is simple, and it’s the quickest way to stand out from the competition.
We can find you a reputable manufacturer to create your branded products, allowing you to differentiate from the rest of the marketplace and to sell them at high margins.
If you’ve ever dreamed of creating your own brand, let our team of experts get you started.

Here’s How We Can Help
Our unique three-phase sourcing process makes finding products to sell a breeze. Here’s how it works.
Phase 01
Supplier Identification & Verification
Whether you already have a factory or product in mind, or you need to find something totally different, we’re here to help.
The first step is to find a reputable supplier. We’ll ask you about your product, how it works and who it’s for so we can find you a supplier who’s the perfect fit.
We source products from China for a living, and we know how to find reputable factories. As a registered Chinese company, we can explore what expenses the factory has, how long they’ve been in business, their average order size, etc.
Our expertise means you’re only dealing with legitimate factories that meet your specifications.
It’s the suppliers we knock back that makes us different.
As a registered Chinese company, we explore what expenses the factory has, how long they’ve been in business, their average order size, etc.
Our strict vetting criteria means you’re only doing business with trustworthy factories.
We perform extensive background checks to make sure that your supplier is the real deal, and can deliver on your vision.
If they don’t meet our requirements, you won’t be dealing with them. It’s easy, safe and reliable.
Phase 02
Order Management & Negotiation
Our team has decades of experience, and the best negotiating practices.
Let us take care of the heavy lifting and get you the best deal for your order today.
China has been producing quality products for centuries, but if you don’t understand the language and unique business culture, it’s hard to get exactly what you want.
That’s another area where we shine – communication.
We use our experience to communicate your product needs so the supplier fully understands your specific order. We’ll also monitor the production along the way to ensure consistency with your specifications, and step in (as needed) to make the entire process hassle-free.
Order Management and Negotiation
We manage the manufacturing and negotiate the best price on your behalf.
Sample Management
We work directly with the supplier to ensure your sample is created to specifications.
Production Management
We’ll keep you up to date with progress reports and ongoing communication.
No More Getting Lost In Translation.
With our team on the ground in China, we guarantee you’re getting exactly what you order.
Our English-speaking team of experts will communicate your unique requirements to the supplier, giving you peace of mind and ensuring that they deliver the exact product you’ve ordered.
It gets better. As we’re based in China and understand the business culture, we can often get you a better price, lower MOQ and a supplier who genuinely wants to do business with you.
It’s all about giving you peace of mind knowing that we’re handling everything and getting you the best deal available.
Phase 03
Quality Control, Shipping & Customs Management
We’ll handle all dealings with logistics, customs brokers and your supplier, giving you peace of mind door to door.
Once production is complete, we provide quality control and help navigate shipping to get your order where it needs to go.
And if anything goes wrong? We have your back. If you experience a product defect or your order is incorrect, our team will handle that before it ever goes to port.
We take care of the complicated process of customs and logistics. This is something you just don’t have to do. We’ll get your order safely to where it needs to go.
No Balance Payments Until You’re Satisfied.
Many suppliers promise the world… and don’t deliver.
Our team conduct independent quality control inspections of your order to prevent any ‘nasty surprises’.
No more ‘false-positive’ inspection reports from the factory.
We’ll publish a comprehensive report on your order to confirm the product is as you expect; it matches the samples, it conforms to your exact specifications.
Until our team gives you the ‘thumbs up’ on your order, you won’t make a balance payment. Simple as that.

The Australian Importing Company Team have made my Original Design Product a reality in China.
Their attention to detail to source the most capable factory and get my product right was first class.
The connection and ease of communication between the Melbourne and China offices is extremely professional – and having someone as experienced as Adam in Melbourne to call whenever I needed was invaluable.
Highly recommend AIC sourcing services!
One Stone Manufacturing
We use a ton of consumable items in our business and it just didn’t make sense to keep paying wholesale rates in Australia. That’s when we reached out to AIC and had their team take over.
We came to them with a wide range of products and one after another we were able to find great suppliers to import from. We slashed our operating expenses and saved a fortune on our bottom line. If you’re looking for the best, look no further than AIC.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank yourself and your company for all of your efforts in sourcing New Age Caravans.
The order arrived In mint condition and look and work fantastic. I especially love that you could Brand our logo on them.
I was very impressed with your service, help and patience especially in these troubling COVID 19 times.
I look forward to dealing with AIC and having more items sourced in the near future.
New Age Caravans

Silver Raven
I have been dealing with the Australian importing Company since May 2019. They have from the very start been professional, transparent, informative and accommodating.
They made the entire process easy. We started with a brief scope of what I needed and then I left it to them to find prototypes.
We then received a sample and gave feedback until we came to the final product. We asked for the AIC to do the quality control in China and work with the shipper.
For someone like me who was so new to important, AIC was by our side the entire way through and made us so comfortable with everything.
Thanks to their efforts, we are now looking at expanding into our own range. I could not recommend Adam and the team enough.
