China Product Sourcing

If your product isn't ready yet, we support the sourcing process.

The first step of your launch plan may be the product itself. We support supplier research and the sample process when sourcing from China, and review the product against your target market's requirements.

Scope

Steps that connect sourcing to launch.

  • 01

    Supplier research

    Researching supplier options that fit your product and goals.

  • 02

    Sample process

    Support coordinating sample requests and evaluation.

  • 03

    Market requirements

    Reviewing labelling and compliance requirements for the product and packaging in your target market.

Good to know

Supplier selection and order decisions are yours. We provide information and coordination support; product quality and delivery terms depend on your agreement with the supplier.

Frequently Asked Questions

Sourcing and launch

See all questions
My product isn't ready yet. Can I still start?

Yes. Infrastructure steps such as company formation and trademark can run in parallel with product development. If you are still sourcing, we also support product sourcing from China.

How does GPSR affect sellers?

The EU General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR) has applied since 13 December 2024. For products sold in the EU it introduces requirements such as an EU-based responsible economic operator, product labelling and safety information. We review which requirements apply to your product.

How long does a product launch take?

It depends on the steps involved — company and banking processes, trademark filing, content production and logistics preparation — and on where you are starting from. After the consultation we share a plan showing the steps and their order.
