Hong Kong Smugglers Set to Deliver Tens of Thousands of iPads into Chima

Hong Kong – Saturday, July 24, 2010 – ShutterVoice – When trading products into  China a distribution network is needed to sell the product to the end user. Typical examples Lenovo has more than 10,000 stores in China, and Nokia’s retail network in China comprises more than 100,000 stores. Apple are not as well established yet in PRC so the entry into China for the iPad, will be by using the gray market route aka smuggling in from Hong Kong vendors. These guys are very experienced and successfully sold more than 400,000 iPhones into the Chinese mainland market in the first half of 2010. Laws in Asia are always bent and twisted in every direction when a product is in demand and where serious money is to be made. Hong Kong has been operating this way for decades.
