What Your Purchasing Assistant Does?

Supplier Sourcing & Checking

Finding a supplier is easy, but finding the right one is hard. We go beyond basic searches to protect your business.

We use the established network and local knowledge to identify manufacturers who are not only capable but also reputable. Our verification process is thorough, designed to minimize your risk and ensure a smooth production run.

This is what we check for you:

  • Company Legitimacy: Verifying business licenses and export qualifications to ensure you're working with a real, legally-compliant factory.
  • Production Capability: Assessing their factory size, machinery, and past work to confirm they can handle your order volume and quality requirements.
  • Quality Control Systems: Reviewing their internal quality check processes to see how they prevent defects and ensure consistency.
  • visit suppliers

    Price Negotiation

    Getting the “best price” isn’t just about the lowest number; it’s about achieving the best value without sacrificing quality.

    With a deep understanding of local production costs, material prices, and cultural negotiation tactics, I work on your behalf to secure a fair and competitive price. I focus on building a respectful but firm relationship with the supplier to create a win-win outcome that ensures long-term cooperation and consistent quality for you.

    Order Management

    Consider us your project manager on the ground. We provide constant oversight so you can have complete peace of mind.

    Once an order is placed, our work is just beginning. We provide proactive follow-up and transparent communication to keep your production on track.

    This includes:

    • Constant Communication: Regular contact with the factory manager to monitor progress and address any issues before they become major problems.
    • Timeline Management: Ensuring key production milestones are met, from raw material sourcing to final assembly, to prevent unexpected delays.
    • Regular Updates: Providing you with clear, concise status reports so you always know the exact stage of your production.

    Quality Control

    We are your eyes on the ground, ensuring the products you receive match the quality you paid for.

    Quality issues are the biggest risk in overseas purchasing. As a purchasing assistant, our on-site inspection service is designed to catch problems before your products are shipped, saving you from costly returns, rework, and damage to your brand’s reputation.

    • During Production Checks (DUPRO): Inspecting goods while they are still on the production line to identify and fix issues early.
    • Pre-Shipment Inspection (PSI): A final, comprehensive check of a sample of finished products to verify quality, quantity, packing, and labeling against your specifications.
    • Detailed Inspection Reports: You receive a professional report with clear photos and descriptions, giving you the confidence to approve shipment.

    Logistics & Export Support

    Navigating the complexities of international shipping can be daunting. We manage the entire process for a hassle-free delivery.

    We ensure your goods are prepared correctly for export and work with reliable freight forwarders to manage the journey to your doorstep. This service covers all the critical details, including preparing the necessary export documentation, arranging customs clearance, and tracking the shipment until it arrives safely at your designated port or warehouse.
