A Chinese factory quotation fits on one page and leaves the important part out: an Incoterm that quietly moves hundreds of euros onto your side, a minimum order everyone treats as fixed, a deposit that protects nobody.

  • We read your proforma and tell you what is missing and what does not add up.
What you receive
  • A written note, point by point on your quotation.
  • The Incoterm decoded: what the price covers, what stays on your side.
  • The payment terms: what you advance, when, against what.
  • A list of what is missing from the quotation and should be there.
  • Every red flag, with the exact wording to send back to the factory.
Included
  • Whether the Incoterm matches the unit price and the delivery point.
  • Minimum order: what the tooling truly dictates, what is negotiable.
  • Deposit, balance, payment method, and how exposed that leaves you.
  • Missing clauses: packing, marking, export documents, late penalties.
  • One round of written follow-up questions after delivery.
Not included
  • Approaching or negotiating with the factory, which is brokerage work.
  • Checking that the supplier legally exists, sold as its own line.
  • Inspecting the goods, which happens on site.
What you send us
  • The quotation or proforma, as a PDF or a photo, in English or Chinese.
  • The quantity you have in mind and the delivery country.
  • Any messages already exchanged with the factory.

When it applies

  • First order in China: you have a price and no way to know what it covers.
  • Two factories, two quotations, and no common basis to compare them.
  • A deposit is due today and you want a second opinion before you wire it.

Who carries it out

Carried out by our Mandarin-speaking team in Guangzhou, who read the proforma and its annexes in the original. You get the write-up in English.

Frequently asked

01The quotation is in Chinese. Is that a problem?
No. Our team in Guangzhou reads it in the original, annexes included. The note comes back to you in English.
02What if the quotation is sound?
We say so in writing, with the points still worth confirming with the factory. A clean quotation checked by an outside eye is worth knowing before you pay.
03Do you contact the factory?
Not under this service. We give you the exact wording to send. If you would rather we ran the exchange, that is brokerage work.
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.
