What to expect from Australian
importers
•Value for money over price
•Cautious about changing suppliers
•Australian products preferred but
they are open to international
goods & services
•Go with your best price – avoid
haggling too much
•Expect familiarity and a direct
approach
•Rigid enforcement of standards
and practices – get it right first time!
Import Channels & Distribution
•Internet: sell online through a .com.au site
•Licensing your product or service
•Importers & Wholesalers: usually small & specialist. Few general
importers,
•Distributors: numerous, small and usually specialist
•Manufacturers & End users
•Retailers: usually source locally & use importers for smaller orders
•Establish a local presence and sell directly
Typical Distribution Channel costs
(Retail example)
Overseas buying agents/commission agents 3-6% FOB
Importers & Wholesalers selling volume consumer goods 40-80% on
landed duty paid goods
Discount Department Stores 35-40% of the selling price
Department Stores 40-75% of the selling price
Small Retail 50-100% of the selling price
Supermarket Chains 15-35%
Quoting & Getting Paid
US dollar the most common currency
Most exporters expect Free On Board
or Free Carrier quotations but;
•Those importing commodities often
prefer Cost & Freight terms
•Most Australian importers take out
their own insurance so don’t expect
Cost Insurance and Freight or Cost
Insurance Paid terms
•Remember that any customs duties
will be based upon the FOB price
•Offer your best price, don’t haggle too
much.
•Letter of Credit common place
•Remember to factor in delivery times
to your terms of payment
