We have put together this 'Guide to Product Sourcing in China' to help you focus on what to look for when finding a reliable partner for your China product sourcing.
QUALITY - your product sourcing partner must deliver world-class product and have a proven track record over many years.
ISO 9001 - your partner for product sourcing in China must be ISO 9001 accredited. Having the correct quality management systems and procedures in place ensures the customer's quality requirements are met. This is a key to differentiate the many manufacturers in China.
EXPERIENCE - there's no substitute for it. Beware of phrases like "we have twenty years' experience in international business' or " we have combined experience of several years in manufacturing". Experience of product sourcing in China is what counts. Nothing else will do
GUANXI NETWORK - guanxi (business contacts, relationships and infrastructure) is central to doing business in China. Guanxi cannot be built overnight so your partner for soucing product in China must have been in business in China for at least twenty years. Only that level of experience and contacts will ensure the success of your China sourcing.
COMMUNICATION IN ENGLISH - if your native language is English, your product sourcing partner in China needs people on the ground in China to assist you whose first language is English.
PRICE - don't choose a China sourcing partner based purely on price. The cheapest may cost more in the long-term.
LEGAL PROTECTION -The Chinese legal system is not the same as in the West. Gain additional protection by using a partner for China product sourcing who is registered and incorporated in Hong Kong - where the legal system is based on English common law.
