Sourcing and manufacturing in China

We source equipment and goods in China for our clients: we find manufacturers, audit them on site and control the order until it ships. We negotiate with the Chinese side directly.

Why clients trust us

We go to the factories ourselves.

We check the workshops, equipment and staff in person. We don’t rely on reports and sales decks.

We speak the language of manufacturing.

Our founder built and ran a manufacturing facility in China. We understand engineering details, tolerances and materials.

We solve problems on site.

If problems come up with quality or deadlines, we can deal with the factory directly and influence the process.

FAQ

Can I order a single check, without a long-term contract?

Yes. A single factory audit or a single batch inspection can be ordered separately, each at its own price.

How are you different from a middleman?

We work for the buyer. We check the factory on site ourselves, negotiate in Chinese based on your specification and report after every stage. How our fee is calculated is set out in the contract.

Do you issue product certificates?

No. We inspect the factory and the batch, but that is not laboratory testing or certification. If you need tests, we arrange them separately through a laboratory.
