  • English & Chinese
  • Project or ongoing support
01 / 07

Need something done in China, but not a full China office?

International teams often need local research, supplier communication, meetings, visits, partner development and follow-through before a permanent China operation makes sense. ENSAMICO provides a flexible China-side operating layer for defined projects and ongoing workstreams.

SOURCE · DEVELOP · EXECUTE

Three ways we help you get things done in China.

01SOURCE

Source China

Find the right suppliers.

Research, screen and compare Chinese suppliers, verify important claims, coordinate factory visits and support the work that follows the shortlist.

02DEVELOP

China Business Development

Find the right business relationships.

PRACTICAL CHINA EXECUTION

Source. Develop. Execute.

Three connected service lines, delivered through the same clear and practical China-side operating model.

01 · SOURCE

Your sourcing team on the ground in China.

Finding supplier names online is easy. Knowing which supplier fits the requirement, what should be verified and what needs an on-site check is much harder. Source China helps overseas buyers make better-supported supplier decisions with local coordination from China.

  • 01Supplier Sourcing
  • 02Supplier Verification
  • 03Factory Visits
  • 04Quotation & Sample Coordination
  • 05Buying Office / Ongoing Support
