Doing business in China comes with its challenges but also if you are lucky it can be a very positive and even life-changing experience.
Overall the Chinese know and understand the importance of business relationships but there is a heavy culture of cutting corners with a good dose of corruption and scandal. They have been well known as a culture to often make orders the first time well; then the second order is made using different, lower grade materials and poorer finish.
This type of business practice isn't reserved for the importing customers who are rude and derogatory to them and treat them badly and haggle on price, what I am referring to has been just typical business practice.
– no wonder there is so much caution when considering doing business there.
With a slight slowdown in the Chinese economy there are and will be benefits for importers; the Chinese businessmen will come to value customers and work harder to keep them. Competition is rife with so many factories all able to do much the same thing and a ready workforce on standby they are taking a little more care.
