We are an established optical wholesaler based in HK and China. The business is owned and operated by two American and Irish businessmen. We provide back office services to a range of companies on multiple continents including:

  • on-line retailers,
  • discount wholesalers,
  • buying groups,
  • chain stores.

The services we provide include:

  • Turn key on-line store (localized website, glasses made to approved Rx, shipped in bulk for local distribution).
  • Bulk lens and lab orders (using tracing point technology).
  • Private label range of frame/lens packages at prices to compete with on-line and chain store operations.

Our advantage is that the vast majority of all optical products originate from here and our labor costs are low. We can offer quality product, quick turn around times and very competitive prices.

On-line Retail Opportunities

On-line optical sales continue to increase at a rapid rate and are now an established part of the industry. Consumers are increasingly looking for ways to buy quality products at a lower price, particularly now in these harsh economic times. Consumers also prefer to buy on-line from a company based in their own country to minimize the risk of scams and to be protected by local consumer laws. This creates an opportunity for a progressive businessperson.

This would suit an established business that:
  • Is looking for an additional revenue stream with minimal upfront cost.
  • Would like to expand their customer catchment from the local area to the whole country.
  • Is run by an energetic entrepreneur with ideas for leveraging quality, inexpensive, prescription eyewear into new markets and distribution strategies.

What you would do:
  • Review online orders and associated prescriptions after customer submission.
  • Customer telephone and email enquiries during business hours.
  • Receive orders in bulk from us and provide local distribution.
  • Manage customer service, quality control and regulatory compliance.
  • Exploring your own marketing concepts and partnerships to extend the sales potential.

What we do:
  • Provide the core website and database.
  • Site customization and site maintenance and management (optional).
  • Supply of frames lenses case and cloths, branded to your requirements.
  • Laboratory services.
  • Ship orders in bulk to you.

You could have an on-line store in a matter of weeks!
