I like negotiation. It is a process of getting deeper engagement with suppliers I believe. Through negotiation, buyer and seller get aligned to stay competitive together to get more customer orders;  Dedication: flexible in working time, quick response, stay dedicated with each project.  Trustworthy: I am hired by you, I represent your best interest all the time, I would keep project information transparent for you, I never accept any commission from suppliers.  Integrity: it is the pillar stone of my business, actually any business. I insist on building long term healthy relation based on mutual interest, fairness, and transparency.  Communication: with 20+ years of speaking and writing in English, I can talk with you fluently. I always keep communication organized, accurate, constructive and in time. I always keep my reports concise, clear and accurate.  Location: Guangzhou is the central city of South China, it is very time efficient to travel to suppliers in industrial cities nearby, such as Shenzhen, Foshan, Zhongshan, Zhuahai, Jiangmen, Huizhou or other part of China. Why houly rate is prefered?  Reliable system: Upwork has the best system to record work diary for you to review the working process;  Most cost-efficient: you pay for the working process ONLY, not even care for coffee break;  Quality work: all I need is to focus on the work. Keep work quality and timeline is 1st priority;  Flexibility: you can adjust the work scope and requirements based on actual needs;  Adaptive to variance: sourcing is like exploring an unknown area, there are many variances in products, specifications, sourcing requirements, supplier availability, supplier support, expectation, communication etc, all causing the actual working hours longer or shorter. ※ My value: Connection, Agile, Reliable, Deliver Results ※

"For one of our order span during Chinese New Year holiday. Our supplier asked an extention of one more month due to lack of labor at their sub-contractor in Covid-19 context. Gordon visited both the supplier and their sub-contractor immediately, managed them with a detailed schedule for each production process together with them, came back to office following through each process day by day.

"I have worked with Gordon for over 3 years at Dextra in Guangzhou in South China. Gordon was in charge of the supply chain, which scaled up significantly under his management, with new product-ranges introduced and a business volume multiplied by 3 folds. Gordon and his team qualified new suppliers in the field of structural steel products and composite material, to reduce supply risks, increase our competitiveness, and improve our cash flow. I strongly recommend Gordon for anyone looking for an expert in the field of negotiating with existing suppliers or sourcing new products/processes."
