Audrey SunFounder and Managing Director Born in China in the province of Liaoning. From a population of 350 million, Audrey was privileged to be one of only 500 special students to be chosen to study a bachelor degree in the Medicine and English at the prestigious Medical University in China. Audrey graduated with distinction and had a number of different roles: as a surgeon; an associate professor of medicine; a business manager and business venture partner.

During this time, Audrey created a vision to establish and develop links between China and English speaking countries. Audrey completed a Commerce and Economics master degree at UNSW. After graduation, she was involved in several key management positions with Australian manufactures and distributors. Her responsibilities included: head of new product development; manager export market development; head of purchasing, importing and exporting.

In 2006 Audrey established her own business – China Manufacturing. CM’s mission is to provide high quality cost effective contract manufacturing and product sourcing services in China for Australian manufacturers and distributors. Audrey’s first-hand experience and understanding of both markets together with her resources, processes and relationships in China enable China Manufacturing Development to provide the highest quality and the most competitive prices while still providing a reliable service. Audrey easily solves the common issues of quality and late delivery by using her native Chinese language skills and her deep understanding and sensitivity to the cultural difference between China and Australia. Only a native born Chinese with 10 years experience in Australia can effectively preempt and proactively solve the logistical and quality problems before they occur. |
