Most businesses overpay 30–50% on their product costs without knowing it. I find where the money is going — and fix it. I'm an ex-founder who built, scaled, and sold a multi-six figure brand across the US, UK, and Australia over five years. No outside investment, no corporate background. Every supplier contact, every freight relationship, and every process I bring to a client was earned running a real business. I now embed directly into businesses as a supply chain contractor, audit what they're currently spending, and build a leaner direct sourcing infrastructure from China that puts the savings back on their bottom line. What I do: → Supply chain audits — identifying where businesses are overpaying and presenting a clear savings plan → Direct China sourcing — manufacturer contacts across Guangdong, Zhejiang and Jiangsu built over years of factory visits → MOQ and pricing negotiation — conducted in Mandarin through native-speaking contacts for real factory pricing → Freight and logistics setup — coordination across China, US, UK, Australia and Europe → 3PL onboarding and fulfilment infrastructure → Product development — concept to manufacturable product for founders launching from scratch → Ongoing supply chain management and retainer arrangements Who I work with: Established businesses spending heavily on physical goods who want to cut costs and build a direct supply chain. And serious founders who want to build it right from day one. I don't take on every project. Before we start I'll want to understand your current setup, your spend, and your goals. If I don't see a clear opportunity to add serious value — I'll tell you. To get started: For a limited time I'm offering the first phase of every engagement completely free. I'll audit your current supply chain, identify the savings opportunity, and deliver an initial plan at no cost. If you want to move forward we agree a project fee from there. If not, you keep the work.
