doing business in china

In recent years, China has emerged as a manufacturing force. As of February 2005, the country is second largest exporter of goods to the U.S., according to the Economic Policy Institute. China is even set to surpass Canada as the largest supplier of U.S. imports by 2006.***

Anyone can go to a business site and find factories and manufacturers in China, but how do you select the most trusted one and give them accurate evaluations? Devon International knows the factories and manufacturers and how to communicate effectively with them. Using our relationships with them, we can help you build strong relationships with them without having to visit China.

The basic steps involved:

1. Potential customers provide us their product specifications, target price, and at least five samples of each item.
2. We select at least five candidates in the manufacturing field.
3. Our services groups across China work closely with those candidates for quotations.
4. We select the best one as the contract manufacturer.
5. We will submit the quotation back to you within two weeks*

* time may vary depending on the complexity of the project).
