Supplier search
Identify potential manufacturers around your furniture category, quantities, intended use and destination.
Possible deliverable · An initial list of possible suppliers, with available source information.
Sourcing Services
Practical support, defined around your project.
I work as an independent furniture sourcing execution partner in Foshan. The engagement starts with the specific tasks you need help with.
Initial screening & comparison
Organise available supplier information and quotations into a consistent format. Flag missing details and questions for follow-up.
Possible deliverable · A comparison of the information obtained, with uncertainties clearly marked.
Specification clarification
Help communicate materials, dimensions, finishes and other requirements so suppliers respond to a clearer brief.
Possible deliverable · A working specification list and a record of open questions.
Quotation & customisation coordination
Request supplier quotations and help coordinate written discussion about custom dimensions, finishes and other project details.
Possible deliverable · Organised quotations, supplier responses and proposed changes for your review.
China-side purchasing follow-up
Provide purchasing coordination within the tasks, reporting and time period agreed for your project.
Possible deliverable · Progress notes and follow-up records for the agreed work.
Deliverables depend on the agreed scope and the information suppliers provide. Initial screening does not certify a factory, verify every claim or guarantee product quality.
