Your on-the-ground team
for sourcing from China
We find vetted factories, negotiate fair prices, track production on site and ship it to your door. No middleman markups, no surprises.
What we do for you
Everything between your first idea and a delivered container — handled by people on site in China.
Find the right factories
We shortlist factories that actually match your product spec, quality standard and target cost — not just names from an online directory. You get real references.
Get a fair landed price
We negotiate directly with factories on your behalf. You see the real factory price and our fee separately — never hidden in the quote.
Stay on schedule, on spec
Daily progress checks, in-line quality control and on-site merchandising. If something goes wrong, you hear about it from us before it becomes a delay.
One contact from PO to door
Freight consolidation, export documentation and international shipping arranged to your destination — with a predictable landed cost.
How we work
Four checkpoints before a container ships — you sign off at each step.
Audit the factory
We audit production lines and check real capability before you send any money.
Approve samples
You sign off on product spec, samples and the QC plan before mass production starts.
Monitor production
On-site checks and photo/video progress reports while your order is being made.
Inspect before shipment
Final quality check, labeling verification and container-loading supervision — then it ships.
We are your eyes and ears in China
Offices in Shenzhen and Shanghai mean we can walk into your factory, hold your sample and watch the loading — not just exchange emails. This is how we protect your margin, your delivery date and your brand reputation. When you work with us, you have a local team — not another middleman.
Frequently asked questions
What buyers usually ask before they hire a sourcing agent.
What does a China sourcing agent actually do?
A China sourcing agent acts as your on-the-ground procurement team: finding and vetting factories, negotiating prices, tracking production on site, running pre-shipment inspections and coordinating shipping to your country.
How much does a sourcing agent charge?
Most agents work on a transparent commission of 3–5% on the confirmed order value, depending on product and volume. At Unite Sourcing you see the real factory price and our fee separately — there are no hidden markups.
Where is Unite Sourcing located?
Our team is based in Shenzhen and Shanghai, China, and serves B2B buyers in North America, Europe, the Middle East and Southeast Asia. We reply Monday to Friday, 9:00–18:00 China time.
How do you make sure a Chinese factory is reliable?
We audit the factory and check its real capability before you pay. You approve the product spec, samples and QC plan, we monitor production on site, and we run a final inspection and container-loading check before shipment.
Do you handle shipping and customs?
We arrange freight consolidation, export documentation and international shipping to your destination, working with licensed forwarders in your country so landed cost stays predictable.
