About us
Modern International Asia Limited, Hong Kong (MIAL) was incorporated in the year 2004 with a vision for aiding its parent company Modern India Limited to source products globally for its internal requirements. The team at MIAL in a very short time consistently excelled in providing comprehensive & quality-driven services that were built to meet its internal requirement. Today the team is equipped with experience and expertise; coupled with having a strong understanding of the sourcing, manufacturing & quality control of various industries and have achieved tremendous measures of success, however challenging it may be to access the required products.
This strong foundation got the attention of various leading brands who were looking at tapping into the expertise created by MIAL and compelled the management at Modern India Limited to look at this business as a separate profit centre and opened its doors to external customers. Today MIAL has a physical presence in 4 countries and works with associates across the globe.
In the year 2023 on the eve of the 90th year celebration of its parent company Modern India Limited, the management decided to rename its product & services under the name of ModExim®. ModExim® is derived from the parent brand MOD for Modern and EXIM a common acronym for Export & Import which is what largely we facilitate for ourselves and our esteemed customers. The term ModExim® was coined keeping in mind that the team at ModExim® needs to deploy Modern techniques in Exporting & Importing quality products for its customer, minus the concerns of massive premiums normally associated with sourcing products globally. ModExim® simplifies processes by digitizing, archiving and most importantly creating an ultimate combination of Price, Quality and Consistency.
