One of the best ways to save money is by manufacturing offshore/overseas and delivering the finished items to your door upon completion. Not all jobs are suited to offshore production. We will guide you.
Doing so requires experience. Barney's has this experience. Listed below are benefits to consider. These will ensure the success of your business.
Located in Guangzhou, China is Barney's China office with an Australian trained team working and overseeing your jobs in the local China factories. This ensures the quality of your product. There is nothing worse than receiving your goods and finding half of them have been printed with poor colour management.
You will receive photos, proofs, mock ups and samples during production of your job to ensure the job meets the specifications and the standards of quality you expect.
Relationships are well established in many factories and the best factories have been chosen by us.
Our team speak and write both English and local Chinese languages. Not speaking the local language or understanding the culture is often a barrier to trade that many others attempt often with mixed outcomes.
Cultural standards and values are easily dealt with by our overseas team who themselves are Nationals in China.
We can source from factories that don't necessarily speak English enlarging the pool of suppliers to choose from whilst maintaining competitive pricing.
Freight and shipping logistics are calculated and managed for you in both the port of origin and destination.
All jobs are quoted in Australian dollars – you do not have to worry about currency conversion and fluctuating exchange rates.
We use the latest technology to ensure clear communication, swift quotes and precise tracking of your job.
Packing of your goods is done with great care so it arrives in perfect condition. Our local team check to ensure this is so.

Advice
At Barney's we love to help you make the best decisions when it comes to printing, signage and promotional items. There are such a myriad of printing terms, processes, stocks, colours and finishes that it can be like learning another language.
Design
Barney's has a number of graphic designers and we would love to work with you on the design of your marketing material. We will meet with you to take a comprehensive brief of your concept, ideas and any photography you may have. We can also do this over the phone or via email.
Installation
The time and effort that goes into making your branded signage is usually significant, so ensuring it looks good on your building, car, window, or at your event, trade show or expo means using an expert to carry out this important work.
Storage & Fulfillment
With an outsourced storage and fulfilment partner like Barney's, your marketing collateral will be safely cared for by us and be accessible by you as well. Having this located off site from your office means greater organisation and less clutter in your office.
Project Management
At Barney's we also have experience in managing projects which require the co-ordination of many different facets related to printing and installation. We can help you confirm your actual needs, audit your requirements or your current inventory, produce the marketing materials, and either install or deliver them to one or many locations.
If for any reason the job does not meet the agreed requirements, let us know within 5 days of delivery and we will rectify it. It's that simple!
