Years of Experience

Our Story

Over 13% of all goods imported into the UK originate from China, making it the UK’s largest import partner. The superior quality and competitive pricing of Chinese goods have significantly increased the popularity of imports from the Far East. However, shipping and logistics often pose challenges, with long transit times and high costs potentially deterring buyers. These obstacles shouldn’t stand in your way.

Our team boasts over a decade of experience in the China-to-UK trade lane. We pride ourselves on guiding first-time buyers to become regular importers through our consistently effective service. We remain committed to this mission.
