In China it’s vital to check the robustness, reliability and very often even the true identity of the companies you are working with. We offer you the possibility to verify the correspondence between the information provided to you and the real situation, through cross-checks, anonymous interviews and meetings.

A critical issue in China is to have the samples on site. Experience has taught us that the best solution is not to rely on international couriers, but to send them by sea. Clearly, it’s something that must be planned well in advance, but it allows to minimize the risk of problems, and above all to have much more product available on site at a reasonable cost. We take care of shipping, custom clearance, stock keeping for you, so that the product will always be ready when you need it.

Drafting an agreement with Chinese operators requires more than just identifying an appropriate contractual model -sales, agency, distribution etc. - and have the text translated. The perception and the value that Chinese operators give to written agreements differs from those perceived in the West, and therefore any agreement made shall fit in with the real situation of the business and take into account the perspective of the other party.

A key phase in all exports directed to China is customs clearance. Although this is almost always delegated to buyers, knowing the rules and mechanisms of China customs is essential to adequately support your partner and follow up. Livit can provide you adequate support in this very delicate stage of the business, as well as all information on tariffs and relevant documents.

Once the business started you should not lose the initial momentum, and make any effort to make the business grow. Livit staff can help you increase sales by organizing tastings, promotional events, as well as design and printing of materials specifically for the market.

Livit provides a professional and reliable translation and interpreting service, from Italian to Chinese and English to Chinese, made by personnel with knowledge of both languages and with clear understanding of the technical terminology of the business.
