🗣️ Clear Communication💥 | ⚡ Quick Turnaround💥 | ✅ Organized & Results-Driven💥 With 20 years of experience in international trade, I have participated in multiple editions of the Canton Fair and the Hong Kong Electronics Fair. I am capable of independently managing the entire process from product development and mold opening to sourcing suitable manufacturing partners, negotiating costs, pricing, payment terms, and delivery schedules. I am well-versed in the supplier audit requirements of major corporations such as Walmart. As a buying agent for clients in China, I am responsible for identifying factories that meet their specifications and coordinating their business trips in China—including factory meetings, transportation, accommodation, and all other logistics. I oversee order production, pre-shipment inspections, freight forwarder coordination, and the preparation of shipping documents. Additionally, I have three years of hands-on experience independently operating an Amazon store, handling everything from product selection and sourcing to listing creation, FBA inventory management, and customer service. Currently, I manage a five-year-old Alibaba International Store, where I handle product selection, listing optimization, and client communication. My extensive market expertise allows me to source high-quality, cost-effective products with low MOQs and short lead times, ensuring efficient cash and inventory turnover. I have established long-term partnerships with reliable freight forwarders, enabling me to arrange cost-effective and timely shipments—whether by full container load (FCL), less-than-container load (LCL), or small parcels. I also have experience in dropshipping, helping clients minimize costs while ensuring fast delivery of quality products to their end customers. No matter what product you are looking for in China, I am confident in my ability to assist you in achieving your goals.

Based in Shenzhen, China, I help overseas clients with China sourcing, supplier communication, factory visit coordination, supply chain follow-up, business trip planning, and EN/CN/Cantonese interpretation. My strength is not just translation — I help clients ask suppliers the right questions, clarify tricky situations, follow up on production/order issues, and keep both sides aligned. 🔎 China Sourcing & Supplier Search • Supplier research on Alibaba, 1688, Made-in-China, and local/off-platform channels • Initial supplier screening, comparison, and basic credibility checks • MOQ, pricing, sample, lead time, packaging, and customization clarification • Supplier shortlist reports with practical next-step suggestions 🤝 Supplier Liaison & Business Communication • WeChat/email follow-ups with Chinese suppliers • EN/CN/Cantonese interpretation for supplier meetings • Clarifying misunderstandings, delays, production issues, and unclear supplier responses • Helping overseas clients understand what suppliers are really saying and what needs to be confirmed 🏭 Factory Visit & On-Ground Support • Factory visit coordination in Shenzhen, Dongguan, Guangzhou, Huizhou, Hong Kong, and nearby Pearl River Delta areas • Remote factory/product checks with photos, videos, and written summaries • Sample tracking, order status follow-up, and issue documentation • Meeting notes, risk points, and action lists after supplier discussions 📦 Supply Chain & Order Follow-up Support • Production progress checking • Shipment/order communication follow-up • Basic coordination between suppliers, buyers, and logistics contacts • Flagging unclear timelines, inconsistent information, or potential communication risks ✈️ China Business Trip & Local Planning • Supplier visit route planning and realistic daily schedules • Hotel, transport, train, airport, and local route suggestions • Shenzhen / Guangzhou / Dongguan / Hong Kong / GBA travel coordination • Trade show, factory visit, and meeting-day planning so your trip runs smoother I studied and worked overseas in Canada, lived in Australia, and have traveled across China and internationally. Because of that, I understand both Western business expectations and Chinese supplier-side communication habits. I can help bridge the gap between both sides — not only with language, but also with context, timing, manners, and practical local judgment. I am a good fit if you need someone based in Shenzhen who can communicate clearly, follow up professionally, organize messy supplier information, plan realistic China-side visits, and help move sourcing or supplier-related tasks forward.

Most clients come to me when they're unsure who they're really working with — whether a supplier is a genuine manufacturer, what a factory can realistically produce, or where the risks are before placing an order. At that point, finding more suppliers rarely solves the problem. The real challenge is verifying capabilities, understanding risks, and making sourcing decisions based on facts rather than claims. Since 2017, I've helped 1,500+ clients across 50+ countries identify qualified manufacturers, verify suppliers, trace products back to their actual OEM/ODM source, and reduce sourcing risk before production begins. What I help with Factory vs. trading company verification Reverse sourcing and OEM identification Supplier qualification and risk assessment Production capability evaluation OEM/ODM supplier development MOQ, pricing, sample, and feasibility review Factory-side coordination and sourcing support My background in manufacturing operations helps me evaluate suppliers from a production perspective, not just based on online listings and sales claims. I work entirely through written communication with clear documentation and structured updates. If you already have a supplier, factory, product, Alibaba link, or quotation you're unsure about, feel free to send it over. I'll provide a clear assessment of the risks, opportunities, and practical next steps.
