When a large American retailer decided to set up a buying office in Hong Kong, their Asia-Pacific manager contacted Klako Group for advice on how to keep the organization lean and the expenses low. The client's primary concern was that their buying office staff should not spend time on administrative functions, but focus exclusively on merchandising and order follow-up. In order to ensure efficiency, the Asia-Pacific manager decided to utilize Klako Group's outsourcing services for all administrative functions of the buying office. The client has been able to keep the number of staff low, and Klako professionals are cost-effectively handling all corporate secretarial duties, the entire bookkeeping, accounting and tax filing, as well as banking and payroll.
