Iron Chef Imports began in Japan 1999, exporting cars from Japan to Australia for vehicle dealers. From there, founder Kristian Appelt returned to Australia to return to a teaching career, importing vehicles from Japan for family and friends. Over time, the business grew to a point where Kristian was able to become a full time import broker at the end of 2007 until now. In 2011, two off-shoot busi
nesses were established - Iron Block Imports (importing vehicles to Australia from the USA) and Iron Lady Imports (importing vehicles to Australia from the UK. At the beginning of 2012, Troy and Alicia Fuller joined the Iron Chef team and quickly became the main port of call for all new enquiries while Kristian pursued other business interests. In November 2013, Troy and Alicia moved to Tokyo to help establish Iron Chef Exports, again giving us the ability to export to private clients worldwide direct from Japan. Having a separate page means that our international customers (ie the ones who aren't Australian) can receive information tailored to their specific markets, rather than sale prices that apply to Australia only. Have you ever seen companies using their company name as their username on car forums? With Iron Chef Imports, it was the reverse! Kristian's username has always been "Iron Chef" (because of his love for the show) and the business name was an extension of this, enabling his customers (mostly other users from car forums back in the early days) to identify who they were dealing with. WHERE DOES IRON CHEF EXPORTS EXPORT? Anywhere in the world, providing your import regulations allow it. We have clients in the US, UK, New Zealand, South Africa, Pakistan and many more. THE PRICES ARE IN JAPANESE YEN - HOW DO I WORK OUT THE COST TO GET IT TO MY DOOR? Please PM us here, or email Troy at [email protected] for more complete pricing to your country, in your currency.
