Budo-Nord has expanded and is now also available in Australia, but NSW Karate Federation Inc. is helping with the distribution there.
Being able to offer Budo-Nord in several countries is a goal we have had for a long time, but for us it is important to find the right partner who both believes in the brand but also sees the quality Budo-nord offers.
We sat down and had a little chat with Wally from Australia to know a little more about them, who they are and how they succeeded in their market thanks to Budo Nord.
