Supplier network · Verified on the ground

5,000+ factories. Zero we haven't checked.

Our network is built the slow way: customs export records, physical audits and years of real order history — not from listings anyone can buy. Every factory passes four gates before it can touch your order.

The 4 gates

How a factory earns its way in

Screening runs in two tiers — a registry-level background check first, then a deep on-site investigation. A supplier stays in the network only as long as it keeps passing: real orders get scored, and factories that slip — late, sloppy, evasive, dishonest — land on our blacklist permanently.

Registry & legal screening

Business registration, years in operation, administrative penalties, court-defaulter (dishonest debtor) status, ownership structure and any history of foreign-trade disputes. We confirm the entity you'd pay matches the entity that actually operates the factory.

On-site audit

We physically visit: production lines, machinery age, workforce, certifications on the wall, capacity vs. what they claim. Photographed, documented, scored.

Capability test

Trial production proves they can hit your spec — materials, tolerances, finish — not just talk about it in a sales meeting.

Export record cross-check

Customs data confirms they genuinely ship to your market at your volumes — the fastest way to spot a broker pretending to be a manufacturer.

Where we source

12 hubs, each the best in the world at one thing

China's manufacturing isn't one market — it's specialized clusters where an entire city does one product category better and cheaper than anywhere on earth. We source from the cluster that fits your product, not the factory that answered first.

Ongoing performance

Getting in is hard. Staying in is harder.

Verification isn't a one-time ceremony. Every order a network factory completes gets scored on quality, on-time rate, communication and issue resolution — and you see the scorecard when we propose them for your project.

  • On-time delivery rate tracked per factory, per order
  • Defect-rate history from real inspection data
  • Issue-resolution record — how they behave when something goes wrong
  • Low scorers get removed — the network earns your trust or loses ours
