Over the past ten years, China has turned into the most attractive destination for business, and especially for global consulting firms.
In fact, according to the IBIS, World Business Intelligence, the average annual growth rate of China’s consulting services market is up 10% from 2009 to 2014.
This massive growth in the consulting industry, and business in general has been due to China’s investment in high-tech and consulting service in China.
Also, by the 90s, many foreign consulting firms entered China and were providing consulting services to Chinese businesses.
Due to the fact that China has become one of the most lucrative markets for consulting services, it has been successful in attracting a large number of international management consulting firms that have been operating as a consulting WFOE in China.
It is no secret that many of the world’s largest consulting services have expanded to the Chinese market, and are now providing their services to clients from around the globe in areas such as, HR, operations, marketing and business strategy.
Even the top local consulting firms in China are competing with foreign consulting WFOE in China for international clients, which increases the competition and efficiency of consulting service providers within China.
At the moment, consulting services in China are mostly located in large cities such as, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Shanghai, Beijing and other major cities of China. But, most of the largest consulting WFOE in China are located in the four major business centers of China.
There are many reasons for this, the most obvious one being that setting up a consulting WFOE in China requires low capital.

While the Chinese consulting industry is still going through its growth stage, this means the thresholds are low, while the geographical distribution is unbalanced.
