Experienced China Sourcing Consultant | Europe & U.S. Background

Hi, I’m Luofei. I help international companies source products from China and manage the process from factory sourcing to export and final delivery. From mid-October 2026, I will be based in China long term and able to work closely with manufacturers and suppliers on the ground. I have several years of living and professional experience across Europe and the U.S., combined with hands-on cross-border business experience spanning China, Europe, and the U.S. I understand both overseas client expectations and the realities of working with Chinese suppliers. I work independently with clients on a freelance or project basis and can act as an extension of their sourcing or procurement team. I currently co-run **PanOrigin**, a cross-border trading business founded with a German partner. I built our China sourcing and export operations from the ground up. Our setup spans Shenzhen, Hong Kong, and Germany, combining direct access to Chinese supply chains with strong European market connections. I have built processes covering supplier sourcing, quality control, compliance coordination, customs clearance, export execution, and international logistics. I currently work with 20+ manufacturers and 4 long-term logistics partners. My sourcing experience spans 10+ product categories and continues to grow across new industries. This includes customized products, packaging, promotional merchandise, and consumer goods. I work directly with manufacturers and factory-direct suppliers. For European-market projects, my German business partner can also support EU-side compliance coordination and local market requirements. Beyond sourcing and procurement, I can support selected business development projects in China. I also have hands-on European e-commerce experience. I continue to operate and scale our B2C business across product sourcing, go-to-market, Amazon Marketplace operations, and digital growth. The business achieved positive cash flow within six months and expanded from Amazon Germany across nearly all EU markets. If you are looking for a reliable China sourcing partner who can work directly with factories and take ownership from sourcing through export and international delivery, I would be happy to discuss your project.
