We've done this before.
Many times.
Every PSC engagement follows a proven structure — tight enough to move fast, flexible enough to handle whatever China throws at it.
Most companies get this wrong.
They trust the factory too early.
Quality problems surface after production. By then, you've paid. Disputes across time zones, languages, and legal systems take months to resolve — if they resolve at all.
They underestimate logistics.
Shipping, customs, import terms, documentation — each one is a failure point. A single error delays your whole order.
They start from scratch every time.
No local network. No trusted contacts. No leverage. Every new project re-runs the same expensive, slow discovery process.
Six steps. One point of contact.
We start with a conversation. Then we get specific.
Before anything moves, we scope your project thoroughly. We use structured forms and consultation calls to get your project to Level 3 clarity — product specs, target cost, timeline, quality standards, logistics requirements. Most clients are surprised how much they hadn't considered yet.
We find the right factory. Not just any factory.
With your brief, we go to market. Lance Trade activates its supplier network, vets candidates against your specs, and requests quotations using standardized information packages — no back-and-forth, no lost time.
We verify before you commit.
Samples, factory visits, quality audits. We are on the ground so you don't have to be. If something is wrong, we catch it here — not after production.
We stay on the factory floor.
Once production starts, we monitor it. Timeline adherence, quality consistency, documentation. You track progress through the client portal. We handle the problems before you know they exist.
We move it. All of it.
SPL handles freight, customs clearance, import documentation, and delivery coordination. We give you transparent cost breakdowns upfront — no surprise charges at the port.
Most clients don't stop at one project.
Once the infrastructure is in place, subsequent projects move faster. Some clients expand into Chinese market entry, JV agreements, or co-investment with factory partners. We handle that too — through the same single point of contact.
As simple or as deep as you need.

China is not like other markets.
Relationships before contracts.
In China, trust is built through presence and consistency — not paperwork. Our local team has the relationships that take years to build. You access them on day one.
Problems surface in person.
Quality issues, production delays, specification drift — these are caught on the factory floor, not in an email. You need someone there.
We speak both languages.
Not just Mandarin and English. We understand what your business needs and what a Chinese factory can deliver. We translate between those two realities every day.
