WHAT WE DO
PRODUCT SOURCING
It is clear that there are many benefits of sourcing products from China, however, it is extremely important to work with an agent to avoid making common mistakes. A sourcing company with an on-the-ground presence in China can simplify the process and assist with:
Trying to do any of these things without a local agent is extremely difficult and can end up much more costly in the long run if errors occur. Relying on translation apps or trusting that your products will arrive just as you want them is highly risky. Working with a sourcing agent gives you peace of mind that someone is working for your best interests throughout the entire process.
CUSTOM MANUFACTURING
You might have a great idea for a product, and once you have done your research, you might decide that the best place to manufacture is in China. However, once you make that decision, it can be difficult to navigate what to do next. There are thousands of Chinese manufacturing companies, and without experience, it can be hard to know which ones are trustworthy and will produce high-quality products. A local sourcing agent brings years of experience and existing relationships with manufacturers, so you don't have to go through the trial and error of finding the best fit for you.

It is not uncommon for Chinese factories to produce entire batches of incorrect products, or go bankrupt during the production process.

That can be extremely difficult and time-costly if you are not based in China. Packages of samples can take months to arrive, not to mention, it can be extremely hard to communicate faults and deficiencies across language/cultural barriers. That is where your agent comes in.
