Australian brands usually arrive with a site, a target channel and a rough test quantity — not with a verified plant list. I coordinate specialist press-on manufacturers in China against that brief. This page is working context, not legal, labelling or customs advice. Your counsel and your importer of record own those decisions.
What to put in the first brief
Brand link, Australia, channel, handmade versus machine-made versus mix, sizing system, English packaging, test quantity, and the question you need answered.
What usually changes by market
AU stockists and online kits still need a sizing system that matches how you already sell, often 24 or 30. Chemist or salon wholesale is a channel choice. It changes pack-out and MOQ talk; it does not make a plant certified for Australia.
What does not change
The sequence is brief, route, sample, packaging, QC against sample, then handover.
What I will not claim
I will not claim a product is approved for sale in Australia because it was made in China. I will not put a certification logo on this site without a document Allen has on file.

Frequently asked questions
Do you have a warehouse in Australia?
Not as a claim on this site. The current work is China-side matching, sampling and handover to the destination you name.
Can packaging be written for Australian retail?
Yes, as a packaging brief: language, insert and barcode if you already use one. That is print coordination, not a compliance filing.
How do I start?
Brand link, target market, product direction.
