Why Australia

It would be unusual for a company with world-class products and services from China, United States, Japan or any one of a number of countries to ignore doing business in Australia.

And here’s why…..

Although Australia’s population of 22 million is less than one half of one per cent of the global total, its economy ranks among the 20 largest in the world, rivalling countries such as India, Mexico and the Netherlands in size and strength. GDP is around US$1 trillion, overtaking South Korea as the fourth largest economy in Asia.

Australia is ranked seventh (7) among 55 economies in an annual competitiveness survey by the Swiss-based Institute for Management Development.  Per capita GDP is slightly higher than that of the UK, Germany, and France in terms of purchasing power parity.

Foreign Companies Doing Business in Australia

Setting up a wholly owned subsidiary in Australia could be expensive and out of the reach of non-multinational companies. There are significant obstacles to exporting to Australia. These include: distance, cost, culture, lack of local knowledge and Australian contacts, availability of senior management resources to oversee on-the-ground operation, and factors of efficiencies and timing.
