Shanghai Ying Jie International Trading Co.

We undertake many diverse tasks on behalf of our clients, from sourcing competitively priced products, and working with Chinese manufacturers to develop specific products for our clients, to organizing familiarization visits to China to meet manufacturers, and develop good relationships.

At our heart, we are a trade development business that has established a complete package to help those small to medium sized businesses - generally from Europe, Australasia and the US - that want to source products from China.

Normally such businesses are hampered by the lack of resources, no on-ground presence, language and cultural barriers, which when coupled with different business practices, makes the task of accessing cheap Chinese products anything but cheap.

Generally, with lower labor costs, many products can be sourced some 25% – 30% cheaper in China. However, these cost advantages quickly disappear when you need to create your own infrastructure in China to source the product. We are a well-established, Shanghai-based international business, which has the expertise to make this process easier.

We encourage our clients to have a close working relationship with us so that our sourcing and development activities for you are focused on your real business needs.

We introduce our clients to the suppliers so both sides understand each other’s capabilities as well as the production issues and quality standards to be achieved. We find this helps develop transparency in the processes we adopt.

We specialise in organizing small production runs to get you started, as you are often not ready to buy full containers at the outset. We have a network of suppliers that are prepared to support us in developing new markets which means you can start with less risk, and have more confidence that you can get your products right.

We respect corporate confidentiality and discuss any potential conflict of interests prior to a client using our services. We also ensure our suppliers adhere to similar practices and respect the intellectual property rights of our clients.
