Guangzhou · Los Angeles

Physical Presence
We operate in Guangzhou. Factory verification, in-person negotiation, and production oversight happen on the ground — not remotely.
Mandarin Negotiation
All factory communication runs through Sourcepoint in Mandarin. Your brand is never disclosed. Factories never know your ceiling.
No Surprises
Transparent pricing, documented specs, and honest timelines at every stage. We tell you when something won't work — before it costs you.

What We Do

Scoped clearly.
Delivered completely.

Every engagement is structured in phases so you know exactly what you're paying for and when.

01
Supplier Identification

We identify and longlist qualified manufacturers from our established factory network in Guangdong Province and beyond.

02
Supplier Vetting

Three suppliers vetted on the ground — including one site visit per engagement within Guangdong Province. No directory guesswork.

03
Price Negotiation

Mandarin-language negotiation with all three suppliers. Your budget, timeline, and brand are never disclosed to factories.

04
Spec Sheet Development

One bilingual master spec sheet distributed to all three factories — formatted to what Chinese manufacturers actually need to quote accurately.

05
Sample Coordination

Two suppliers selected for sample rounds. We manage the sample process, review against spec, and document any deviations before you approve.

06
Supplier Recommendation

One final supplier recommended for production — with documented rationale covering pricing, quality, capacity, and communication reliability.

How It Works

Clear process.
No guesswork.

01
Intake

You share your product specs, quantity, budget per unit, and timeline. We confirm scope and collect the sourcing deposit.

02
Sourcing

We identify, vet, and negotiate with three qualified suppliers on the ground in China — fully in Mandarin.

03
Sampling

Two suppliers produce samples. We review against your approved spec and present findings before you make a decision.

04
Production

You approve the supplier. We coordinate production, manage factory communication, and arrange freight to your destination.

Who This Is For

We work best with founders who are ready to move.

Sourcepoint is not a discovery service. We are an execution partner.

  • You have a real product and a defined budget
  • You are preparing to place a first or repeat production order
  • You can make a decision when presented with facts
  • You want a straight answer, not reassurance
  • You need someone physically in China — not a remote agent or a directory

Sourcepoint is not

  • A sourcing directory or Alibaba alternative
  • A freight forwarder or fulfillment service
  • A broker who passes you to factories
  • A social media or marketing service

"We handle the messy middle — supplier identification through production oversight — so you can focus on building the brand, not managing the supply chain."
