About Lohtsman

Lohtsman

In all we do, we believe knowledge is power. Success is fueled by information.

We've seen far too many businesses run into trouble in China, when proper research could have shed light on what would become unpleasant surprises. We've seen too many missed opportunities because knowledge was built upon weak information.

We love research, and we love seeing our clients succeed.

Our priority and purpose is to empower your business with high-quality, thoroughly researched information. We combine business intelligence with market expertise and native cultural understanding to clarify one of the world's more opaque business environments.

All we care about is getting you valuable information to make sound decisions.

We do not bill by the hour, checking our watches while analyzing valuable information. We do not delegate client cases to interns. We do not have one-size-fits-all service packages.

Our cost-efficient and time-conscious approach includes tailored fee structures to fit our clients' unique needs, with no excess.

Right from the start, our clients have access to our expertise with live consultation at each stage and anywhere in between, when you need it. There is no limit on our time and no limit on the pertinent information we provide to you. There are no hidden costs; the information we gather and advice we give are yours to integrate into your China strategy.
