Do you feeling tired and risking Sourcing from China?

Do you feeling  tired and  risking  Sourcing from China?

Step by  step :1.Check up the name and address of the company, the manufacturing address, phone number and fax number. Cross-reference this information and the company name against other trade sites to ensure that the information is the same including contact names. Conduct a Google check up on the company and their address to figure out if you could find additional information or additional suppliers that supposedly operate under the same contact information.You can also use a third-party company verification service to check them out in a professional way.2.Refuse to deal with generic e-mail addresses like hotmail or yahoo. Only deal with specific company addresses. If the e-mail address is similar to sales05 or sales07 etc. I would assume that they are a wholeseller and not a manufacturer. wholeseller tend to have offices of people surfing Alibaba etc, all day long trying to contact people.  Check up the information.3.Call the supplier at the provided phone number several times and inquire about the company and the person. Ask who is in charge and ask to speak with him. Ask your contact to send along information on the company including maps to their manufacturing site.4.Ask for references in the USA or any other developed country, preferably the references from your own country. Require them to provide a contact name, company name, title, address and phone number. Follow-up with the references in person--not via e-mail. Ensure that they are valid references.5.Inform the supplier that you will be visiting their location for a factory tour. Evaluate their response. It is best to hire someone to actually visit the company to verify the company's validity and business operations even if it costs you some money because it is better to minimize risk during the sourcing process. There are a few reputable companies out there that can conduct a background check for you. Contact these companies and buy the reports. It is well worth the money. Professional factory inspection or auditing service can be available from CHINABIZ CHECKUP in Mainland China.6.When procuring items for new suppliers request payment via L/C instead of T/T. Very few international manufacturers actually accept Paypal or Escrow. If you have placing a very, very large order then you might be able to get them to agree. Never pay the full balance up front.7.Pre-shipment inspections are a must for new suppliers. You want to ensure that the goods are of high quality before accepting the order. Conducting a statistical sampling of goods is highly recommended. Also, if you are able to coordinate a pre-shipment inspection then you could arrange for payment of the balance upon successful completion of the inspection.Notes:If you are dealing with suppliers that pay brand name goods like Apple iPods, Nokia phones, please don't expect that these are manufacturers of these products. Brand name goods companies have tight controls over the manufacturing process. If the company is a manufacturer then these are most likely fake or imitation goods. If the company says they are authentic then they are either they are a wholeseller or possibly fraudulent.
