We have a dozen years of experience in the management of duty-free accounts. Until the Covid crisis, most of our work focused on duty-free commerce in Asia, with an emphasis on South Korea, the largest duty-free market. We look forward to the restart of tourism and the reboot of duty-free business.
From Japan to Myanmar, we have an extensive network of Asian importers and distributors in the wines & spirits business. With our knowledge of the markets and their regulations, we are the middleman between your products and the distributors, ensuring a smooth export/import process.
Sending a container is not the end of the sales process, but the beginning. We provide the feet on the ground to accompany the brand on the markets. We animate the market, help the distributors convey the right message, staying on brand.
Stimulus HK was started as an answer to a question often asked by potential clients in China: Can you find this kind of wine for us? Instead of trying to force a specific kind of wine of spirits on them, we listened and sourced what they wanted.
We signed an exclusive representation agreement with a large Cognac distillery, representing them in Asia outside Mainland China. We established the first foothold for this company's brands in the Duty-Free market in Korea – serving mostly Chinese tourists.
By 2018 we had listed the company's brands (Cognac, French Brandy, Whiskey, Vodka, in eight countries, China's lucky number!, and were preparing for the second round of expansion.
We all know what happened. The travel retail market died instantly, and imports on domestic markets also dried up. We have maintained a small trading activity, and are waiting for the borders to reopen to relaunch prospection activities.
We have relaunched, with a new portfolio of wines & spirits, new partners, and a new team. But the same clients, and hopefully new ones, soon.
If you are looking for wines & spirits from the Old World, especially France and Spain, from reputable vineyards and distilleries, whether for the domestic market or duty-free, reach out and we can sit down and have a chat.
