Tan's Exotic Imports (also known as Archie's and Archie Tan Merchant) was the antique importing business owned by Archie Tan. It had a store and office in Chinatown, San Francisco. Knowing that he had many valuables that might be attractive to thieves, Tan had a secret storage room and a hidden basement in his facility. In 1939, members of a tong tried to break into Tan's office to find artifacts that would help them locate the missing Charles Kingston. Indy discovered the place had been ransacked.
