Frequently Asked Questions
1. Sourcing FAQs
Why should I use CBSOURCING company?
There are many excellent factories in China. However, dealing with overseas factories requires a lot of experience in terms of effective communication.
Diverse barriers can be encountered by overseas factories to insure continuous manufacture efficiency & quality from suppliers such as:
✔️Most factories outsource the workload to multiple locations, especially during peak production times = lack of quality control and equal deliveries.
✔️Important workforce turnover in factories (especially after Chinese New Year) = lack of constant production delivery.
✔️Inconsistency in supply of raw materials due to seasonal difficulties = lack of production quality and respect for delivery times.
Constant supply chain supervision, monitoring and control processes are needed (material requirement, processing technologies, pre-production, mid-production and end product quality control/testing), shipping and export management.
Using a professional company like CBSOURCING will enable you to buy your goods from China with confidence and even lower your costs!
