Oversea market selected
We selected to bring sweet osmanthus sauce entering Perth. Perth is the main city of Western Australia which means more abortion and facilities, including supermarkets and retail stores. Our sauce will have more opportunities to expose and sale. Also Perth has many Chinese immigrates & people on working holiday. People on working holiday are mainly from China, Hong Kong and Taiwan. They will have higher adoption toward our sauce because they may try it before or they are regular users. And Australia is famous in honey making, sweet osmanthus sauce will have an opportunity to cross-manufacturing with a local honey brand. It can increase the sauce quality by using a better honey. Moreover, Western Australia is the second high earning state in 2012 (Figure 1). People in WA will have more disposable income and higher ability to buy relatively.

Because of the benefits that agreement provided, there will be more and more Chinese brand entering Australian market, therefore the competition is keen.
Guilin agricultural subsidize
