We start with product character, current sales channels and brand priorities. Beyond choosing a country, we identify a specific audience and channel to explore first.
Our contact points in Taiwan, including Xiao Jiu Wu in Taipei, inform discussions about product introductions, Traditional Chinese materials, serving suggestions and potential tastings or events.
Review specifications, quantities, timing, storage and responsibilities. We define the practical work for the product and destination before agreeing who handles each stage.
Europe and IP collaborations can form part of the discussion, depending on product fit, rights and distribution requirements. We define a feasible scope for each project.

Alongside IP product collaborations, WAIN99 provides consulting for entry into Taiwan. We help brands and rights holders define audiences, product formats, local messaging and channels, then map out a phased route to market.
Support can cover market and channel research, Traditional Chinese product and proposal materials, product-development and approval workflows, and preparation for meetings, exhibitions and venue introductions. We agree on the scope of decision materials and practical plans for each engagement.
Our AI consulting concept begins with workflow mapping and an adoption assessment. Potential areas include multilingual product information, sales-report preparation and internal process documentation. We assess expected value, implementation difficulty and data handling to identify a suitable first workflow.
Taiwan consulting scope, responsibilities, fees and timing are agreed for each project. Phased AI support is in preparation; it is not a fully automated operations service.

Yes, subject to discussion. We review product information, audience and use cases, then define the scope for Traditional Chinese messaging and trade materials.
We assess whether an introduction is appropriate after reviewing the product, market and supply conditions. Meetings, listings, repeat business and sales volumes are not guaranteed.
No. Market fit, licences, labelling, logistics, pricing, capacity and rights must be reviewed. Execution is considered only when conditions are met and relevant parties agree.
