The office will be headed by Daisy Liu who has worked with the company since 2009. Liu’s knowledge of Chinese and Australian markets as well as her networks within China will help Great Southern Press expand to provide customised solutions for organisations and industries.

“Bringing together Great Southern Press’ industry knowledge with my local knowledge – this is what gives us the edge over other agencies and other marketing and development companies,” Liu said.

Managing Director of Great Southern Press Chris Bland said “Extensive knowledge of organisations and industries goes a long way to creating marketing and services that deliver results. We have been working closely with organisations and industries for many years and it’s a natural progression for us to expand our offerings.”

The new Qingdao office complements Great Southern Press’ offices in Melbourne, Houston, London and Toronto.
