About

Mr. Paul Adkins is currently the Managing Director of AZ China Ltd. and has many years of experience in sourcing, supply chain and operations. He previously worked for Alcan and Alcoa, Philips, and Compaq in Australia. During that time, he spent many years based in Sydney but trying to source low cost components from China and elsewhere. At the end of 2004, Alcan appointed him to set up its Global Sourcing office in Beijing. Upon completion of that project, he has elected to stay in Beijing, where he can assist other Australian and Western manufacturers to successfully source from China and has an MBA from University of Newcastle in Australia and frequently speaks at industry-related conferences.
