Doing your own sourcing??  Self-Sourcing from China can be a DIY nightmare.  New West has help to rescue many projects from clients who thought it was easy to do it by themselves.
 
Sourcing from China is easy right? Yes it is - far too easy. A quick online search turns up dozens of vendors that will quote you a great price and promise the moon to you for your business. You choose one and start business, and then the other shoe drops:
The goods arrive and are defective, not right for some reason or perhaps the goods don't even arrive.
 - The shipments arrive late
 - Your contact leaves and you start having communications problems
 - The price starts changing
 - You begin to have worries abour your proprietary technology being sold out the back door, or incorporated into your vendor's own products.

Sourcing successfully from China is NOT so easy. It is a different culture and a very different way of doing business.  Things are not always what they seem. ANYONE can set up a web page and give you a great story. In China hundreds or thousands of new businesses crop up every week.

There are many unexpected challenges in China.  For example - after finding one or more interested suppliers online, you may even take a trip to visit the prospective vendors and see the factories in person. However, in China you cannot be sure that the factory that your are shown is truly that of your new supplier.  Your new partner may be actually be a trading company, getting your goods made wherever they can make the most profit and taking you to see one of these factories, claiming it is "his".  You will never know until it is too late.

 "Yes" often means "No" in Asia - can you tell the difference?  In the Asian culture, it is often considered "bad face" to say no. It is critical to be able to know when the vendor is really telling you that they don't want to do what you are asking. If pushed, the product will often be farmed out to a 3rd party, or just done badly.  Only experience can provide the training in how to understand this.

New West has 25+ years of experience sourcing and manufacturing products in Asia. We are well familiar with the many  potential problems and scams related to Asian sourcing, and how to avoid and prevent them. Our selected network of vendors have been carefully chosen for their quality, reliability, and honesty. 

We also make sure that our vendors are financially stable, and will not suddenly dissappear or be unable to complete your orders. In these current times, hundreds of Chinese factories are failing every day !  We will assure that yours is not one of them.
