Who are we?

We’re Americans who are fluent in Chinese production, based in New York City.

Over 10+ years in China, we've built a network of experts, agents and vendors that provide our clients with an exceptional level of transparency and trust in an industry dominated by misinformation and suspicion.

We work purely as a representative of our US clients' interests. Unlike traditional factory reps, we don’t accept referral fees from factories or agents to ensure that our services are 100% aligned with our clients’.
