Maplin Far East Operations was first established in 1992 due to the increase in the purchasing of items from Taiwan followed by Hong Kong and China. To strengthen buying power, the Maplin Electronics set up its first Far Eastern branch office in Taipei, Taiwan.

The office is in charge of product sourcing, purchasing, inspecting, shipping & payment arrangement from Taiwan and is now the Far East Operations Centre.

The Hong Kong Office was established in 1995 to handle the sourcing, purchasing and shipping from Hong Kong. As most productions in Taiwan and Hong Kong have moved to Mainland China, the company registered a representative office in Shenzhen, China under the Hong Kong Office in 2004. So far, the 3 offices in the Far East handle more than 500 suppliers and 5,000 buying items for the parent company. The major product categories include:
