01 / SOURCING
Supplier sourcing in China
Effective sourcing is more than collecting quotations from a B2B marketplace. The objective is to identify a manufacturer that understands the specification, can maintain quality and has the capacity to deliver on the agreed schedule.
Why should a supplier be verified?
The first quoted price rarely reflects the full cost and risk of a project. Differences in materials, tolerances, tooling, packaging or payment terms can determine whether the import is viable. We compare suppliers against one specification and clarify discrepancies before any deposit is paid.
Scope of our sourcing service
- product, technical requirement and volume analysis
- manufacturer research and removal of unsuitable intermediaries
- comparison of quotations, MOQ, lead times, materials and payment terms
- direct communication with factories and specification clarification
