Service 01 · Factory Sourcing

From a product requirement to a shortlist of real factories.

Send us what you need to buy. We search China-side sources, screen out poor-fit and high-risk candidates, and give you a shortlist worth comparing.

What we can look for

  • Manufacturers that genuinely produce the category you need
  • Factories whose capability matches your volume and tolerances
  • Suppliers with the certifications your market actually requires
  • Options beyond the obvious listings, including less-marketed factories
  • Suppliers we would flag as high-risk before you send a deposit

How a sourcing request runs

  1. Tell us what you need

    Product, quantity, target price, specifications. Photos and spec sheets welcome.

  2. We search

    We build a candidate pool from China-side sources and industry contacts, not just marketplace search.

  3. We shortlist

    We remove trading companies masquerading as factories, mismatched capability and obvious risk.

  4. You compare

    You get a shortlist with the differences that matter, and the open questions worth asking each one.

  5. You decide

    You choose who to approach. We stay buyer-side and support verification or audits when you need them.

Questions about sourcing

Do you find suppliers or just research them?

We find and screen them. We search, remove poor-fit candidates, verify what we can from China-side records, and present a shortlist. You make the final choice and run the commercial negotiation.

Can you work from a photo or a sample?

A photo plus the product category usually gets us started. Where the product is technical, a spec sheet or drawing in the attachment field saves a round of questions.

What if I already have a supplier?

That is fine. Tell us in the form. We can either find alternatives to compare against, or move straight to verifying the supplier you already have.
