The brands that arrive with a media plan.

A Chinese consumer brand does not enter a market quietly. It arrives with a distributor, a price list, a trade fair, a launch window — and a media plan. In most of the markets it has already entered, that media plan was bought locally, from operators exactly like you.

These 84 companies are China's hidden champions in their own categories: No.1 or No.2 globally in appliances, tyres, tools, textiles, toys, food and drink. Most of them already sell through distributors across the Middle East, Africa, Southeast Asia and Latin America.

In Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan they cannot buy what they need in China. They need your streets, your metro, your screens, your consumers. That is the whole reason we are talking to you.

• Category leaders, not start-ups — most are listed on Shenzhen, Shanghai or Hong Kong exchanges
• Market capitalization is stated on every card so you can size the advertiser
• Chinese names are given first, with the English brand where they trade under one
