What buyers typically save.
Three illustrative project scenarios with indicative landed cost analyses. These scenarios are drawn from current sourcing work and benchmark Australian trade/retail pricing. They are not past clients. Use them to understand what scale of saving is realistic for your own project.
Commercial Furniture Fit-Out
Mid-size hospitality or office fit-out covering 30–60 seats: tables, seating, joinery, gondola units, custom counters. Multi-supplier order consolidated by Sun Top into a single container.
LED Video Dance Floor & Wall System
Event AV package for a venue or hire company — modular 6m × 6m LED dance floor plus 4m × 3m LED video wall system with controller and stand kit.
Industrial Cleaning Equipment
Ride-on sweeper fleet for a multi-site retail or warehouse operator: 2 ride-on sweepers, walk-behind scrubber, supporting trolley fleet.

Where the 30–50% actually comes from.
Direct factory pricing vs trading-house markup
Most AU importers buy from Chinese trading houses, not factories. Trading houses typically add 15–25% on top of factory price. Sun Top buys from the factory directly and removes this layer.
AU wholesale & distributor layers removed
Goods sold through AU wholesalers and distributors carry another 15–30% markup each. Sun Top ships direct from the factory in China to your AU door, so neither wholesale nor distributor margin is loaded on top of your price.
Consolidated freight on Sun Top's account
Sun Top books freight under its own account, often consolidating multiple buyer orders into one container. This lowers freight cost per cubic metre versus a one-off LCL booking through an AU freight forwarder.
ChAFTA (China–Australia Free Trade Agreement)
Many product categories from China enter Australia duty-free under ChAFTA when accompanied by a valid Certificate of Origin. Sun Top requests CoO from every factory and passes the duty saving on to you in the landed cost.
