OUR CHINA SOURCING PROCESS
A documented path from enquiry to export handover
The exact workflow is confirmed in the accepted quotation or contract. A typical project follows the stages below.
- 01
Requirements and feasibility
You provide specifications, quantities, target market, budget, timeline, packaging needs, destination and preferred Incoterm. We review feasibility and identify information gaps.
- 02
Supplier research and quotation
We approach suitable Chinese manufacturers, clarify capability and compare the commercial and technical offer.
- 03
Samples and written approvals
Where required, samples, drawings, finishes, labels and packaging are coordinated for approval before production.
- 04
Order confirmation and production
The accepted documents define the contracting entity, scope, price, payment, lead time, specifications and delivery terms. Production is then followed against agreed milestones.
- 05
Quality-control coordination
Agreed inspections or testing are arranged at the stated stage. Findings and required corrective actions are documented before shipment approval.
- 06
Export and freight handover
We coordinate China-side documents and handover under the named Incoterm® 2020 rule and place. Import clearance, duties and destination compliance remain with the responsible party under that term unless otherwise agreed.
- 07
Delivery follow-up
Shipment updates, documented claims and repeat-order planning are handled according to the contract, carrier records and any stated warranty.
COMMERCIAL BASICS
Terms are confirmed in writing
Quotations may be issued in USD or CNY, with other currencies by agreement. Testing, third-party inspection, certification, tooling, freight, insurance, duties and destination services are charged or included only as stated.
Product warranties and remedies are project-specific and must be set out in the accepted transaction documents.
