Parallel import exists mean the sole distributor couldn't meet market demand e.g made too much profit, priced too expensive, stock shortage, poor distribution network, etc.

Unless solution is available quickly, the manufacturer is likely to appoint 2nd importer, allow parallel import or even set up shop themselves.

To buy from local distributor and resell couldn't be cheaper than directly from the manufacturer means ts company is making excessive profit.

It is a matter of time, a parallel importer will offer the manufacturer a better deal e.g higher volume, marketing budget, etc.

If the manufacturer is aware of amount imported is far higher than your purchase, your sole distributorship is numbered.

Instead if wasting resources to stop parallel import, you should focus on increasing your local market share. Have you approach parallel importers to appoint them as your dealer?
