Our story

“People thought China only meant low quality. I found the opposite: there are options for every kind of buyer. The real challenge was knowing how to access them.”

Callister Mkuwa, Founder

After more than five years living in China, Callister saw first-hand the quality, work ethic and flexibility of Chinese manufacturers. CM International exists to give buyers everywhere the same access, whether you are buying your first inventory or scaling a product line.
