Serving World-leading companies...
PRR's clients are global companies that see opportunities for sales, distribution, manufacturing, sourcing, or providing services in Asia. Clients see PRR as a strategic resource supporting their Asia operations with information, incisive analysis and creative solutions. PRR provides a broad range of services:
    Corporate strategy development
  Business unit strategy
  Market entry strategy
  Strategy implementation
  Partner evaluation
  Benchmarking
  Project advisory and JV negotiation
  Executive education
The strategies and value we bring to our assignments enable our clients to address the challenges of establishing and growing a business in Asia, including partnerships, regulatory approvals and government relations, IPR protection, and human resources. PRR works with clients to develop and implement business strategy for the Asia Pacific region, and to integrate regional sales, sourcing, and investments into an overall global strategy.

Practical Approach...

PRR is a team of flexible, creative problem-solvers. While our work begins with rigorous and accurate market research, market information is just the first step in a PRR project. Our value is added in our project-specific analysis and strategies, developed for each client, which open the door to successful investments.

Although broad industry knowledge informs our research, we treat every problem as unique and do not depend on preconceived templates to generate information and recommendations. Instead, we identify and conduct interviews with key market informants, including competitors, current and potential customers, distributors, and suppliers. And recognizing the key role government regulation plays in Asian markets, we establish and maintain ongoing relationships with policy makers and regulators in many industries and at local and national levels, in order to provide our clients informed analysis with a long-term perspective.

The professionals at PRR are fluent in Mandarin Chinese or other Asian languages, and the senior staff has an average of 20 years of business experience in the region. PRR hires people with significant professional experience in Asia, combining an in-depth understanding of Asia with strong knowledge of the business challenges that face global corporations.

Breadth...
The practical, on-the-ground methodologies developed by PRR have proven effective across a range of manufacturing and service industries. In two decades of working with clients in Asia, PRR's professionals have developed broad expertise in a number of businesses, including:
 

  Agriculture
  Automotive
  Chemicals
  Consumer Products
  Electronics
  Automation

  Environmental Protection
  Medical/Pharmaceutical
  Professional Services
  Steel
  Telecommunications
  Printing and Packaging

Investments...
PRR applies the same skills, experience, and methodology required by our consulting practice to our own investment activities. The company holds equity positions in manufacturing and service ventures in businesses involving animation, animal health, and food ingredients in Asia.

Investing strengthens the consulting practice by giving us an owner's perspective. We know what it means to commit capital in Asia. We have direct, hands-on experience with employment, banking, repatriation of funds, control of overseas operations, and other operational issues that our consulting clients deal with every day. We continually monitor changes in investment regulations and in the overall investment climate, not just when a particular project requires it. At the same time, PRR's investment activities are kept rigidly separate from the consulting practice, to ensure that we maintain an objective third-party perspective for our clients.
