Searching alone for a Chinese manufacturer means opening three hundred listings: half of them resell, the other half never reply.

  • We start from your product, find the factories that actually make it, and hand you a short comparison: who they are, at what price, from what quantity.
What you receive
  • A written comparison covering three to five qualified factories.
  • For each: legal name, city, and a direct contact we have spoken to.
  • The price quoted, the minimum order, the production lead time.
  • What the factory genuinely does, and what it does not.
  • Our reading: which one to approach first, and why.
Included
  • A written brief for your product, agreed before any searching starts.
  • Search in China, then across Asia when the product is better made there.
  • The approach made by our Mandarin-speaking team, in the language of the factories.
  • Middlemen presenting themselves as manufacturers filtered out.
  • The contacts are yours: deal with them directly if you want to.
Not included
  • Samples, which are included in the full search.
  • Price negotiation and order follow-up, which are brokerage work.
  • Legal checks on the factories, sold as their own line.
  • Site visits and production inspections.
What you send us
  • A description of the product: photos, drawing, a link to something comparable.
  • The quantity you have in mind and the delivery country.
  • Your target price, if you have one.

    The comparison reaches you, contacts included.

When it applies

  • You have a product in mind and not one contact in China.
  • Your current supplier is raising prices and you have nothing to compare.
  • You want to know whether the product can be made at your target price.

Who carries it out

Run by Sorva, with our Mandarin-speaking team in Guangzhou identifying the factories and approaching them in their own language.

Frequently asked

01Are three to five factories enough?
To open a subject, yes: three serious counterparts beat thirty listings. For a priced bidding round, take the full search.
02Are the contacts really yours to keep?
Yes, we lock nothing away. You are free to come back to us for the supplier check or the pre-loading inspection.
03Do you search outside China?
China first, then the rest of Asia when the product is better made there. The file says so when that is the case.
04What if no factory fits?
We tell you, and why: minimum out of reach, a blocking standard, a target price off the market. That answer saves you the next step.
Bespoke

Large programmes stay bespoke

A continuous buying programme, a large volume or an unusual arrangement will not fit into a box. The pricing page carries the initial pack, the monthly retainer and the success fee.
