A sourcing agent can help international buyers coordinate suppliers, samples, production, quality checks, and shipping in China. The right scope depends on your product and how much of the process you want to manage yourself.
When evaluating an agent, ask these questions:
- What work is included? Clarify supplier search, quotation comparisons, sample handling, order follow-up, inspections, and logistics support.
- How are fees and product prices shown? Ask for a written explanation of service charges, payment terms, and any third-party costs.
- Who owns the supplier relationship and product information? Confirm how specifications, tooling, artwork, and supplier contacts will be handled.
- How are quality issues resolved? Agree on inspection criteria, reporting, corrections, and escalation before production starts.
A clear product brief and a written scope make quotations easier to compare. Tell China Prime Sourcing what you want to make, your target quantity, destination, and timeline to discuss the next steps.
