China Factory Sourcing — Find Vetted Manufacturers

We search, shortlist, and vet factories on the China side — using Chinese databases and trade records that aren't accessible in English — and deliver a verified shortlist with our recommendation.

What's included · from $600

A verified factory shortlist, not just a list of names.

Every factory on your shortlist has been searched, filtered, and background-checked before you see it. We don't hand you Alibaba results — we find factories the way a buyer-side agent on the ground would. Because we source directly from manufacturers, you get better prices, shorter supply chains, and more control over quality.

Each shortlist includes 3–5 candidates with a full background check covering:

Company name
Registered address
Registration number
Legal representative
Registration capital
Date of registration
Type of enterprise
Business scope
Shareholder
Renewal status
Side-by-side comparison of capacity, certifications, and location
Our recommendation on which factory to approach first and why
Delivered within 5–7 business days
Need litigation & blacklist screening? Add it as an optional extra (+$150 per factory).

How it works

Four steps from brief to shortlist.

01

Tell us what you need

Share your product specs, target price range, order volume, and any specific requirements — certifications, factory size, location preference, OEM or ODM. The more detail you give us, the better the match.

02

We search on the China side

We search our own trade database and supplier network — built over years of on-the-ground experience in China's manufacturing sector. We filter out trading companies claiming to be manufacturers, unregistered operations, and factories with legal red flags.

03

We vet every candidate

Before we put a factory on your shortlist, we run a background check on each candidate covering company registration, legal representative, registration capital, business scope, and renewal status — sourced from official Chinese government records. You only see factories that have cleared this basic check.

04

You receive a clear shortlist

We deliver a structured report with 3–5 factory candidates, a comparison of their key details, and our recommendation. From there, you can move straight to supplier verification or contract review if you want to go deeper.

  • You need a factory in a specific region or with specific certifications
Natural next step
