What got you interested in starting your business in Singapore?

We thought Singapore was a great place to expand business beyond borders as our regional base for South East Asia. Singapore itself serves as one of the safest economies to set up a business, with extremely advanced infrastructures in place for business. Singapore has an incredibly liberalized trade and investment environment, as well as being strategically located to all emerging markets. It was the best option for us.

How did we help you along the way?

Hawksford assisted us with setting up our company, and acts as our company secretary.

How would you describe your experience working with us?

It has been an absolute delight working with Hawksford from the first introductory email. All throughout my full incorporation process, Hawksford guided me with full transparency. Hawksford was more like a partner than service provider, as all communication I sent through was promptly and efficiently answered, and I can see that the staff are truly committed and happy to serve their clients. I would definitely recommend Hawksford to anyone thinking about setting up a business in Singapore.

What are your plans in the future for your company?

We are looking at growing the business within the Southeast Asian region where our Singapore presence will be the springboard for going global.
