Isn't working directly with factories the best way?
Yes, It is. Actually, we strive to help you work directly with the factories as soon as possible. Some companies have the resources and know-how required to work with factories directly. Others, don't and need time to build them. For those companies, we offer the support they need until they develop the resources and acquire the knowledge.
If you are not there yet, and still at the stage when you need support, it's good to know that for as little as a few hundreds of dollars you can save hours of your people time and even the need for some of your trips to China.
China outsourcing agent is your one-stop shop for all your supply chain and manufacturing needs.
If you do not have the time or people to manage yourself every little detail in China, China outsourcing agents are the people that will help you tie together the wide range of activities you need to manage in the PRC.
There is a lot of buzz around working with manufacturers directly and for a very good reason.
Only if you work directly with your factory you will establish a direct communication channel that will reduce redundancies and increase your overall speed, not to mention this is your only way to enjoy factory net prices and be competitive.
Still, that does not mean agents in any form and shape is something that is not helpful.
According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, the word agent also means:
A) One who is authorized to act for or in the place of another.
B) Something (or one) that produces or is capable of producing an effect.
So when you think of an agent, think of someone who is doing something that
1. Has to be done.
2. For whatever reason, you choose not to do yourself.
3. Is done according to your instructions.

Challenges
Outsourcing in China presents challenges that could increase your cost and risk
Do I have to have a China outsourcing agent?
The answer to that depends on your organization’s available resources
If you have the knowledge and time to deal with all tasks that require your attention then the answer is probably “no”.
If you are lacking the time, and skilled people in China, then you need help.
If you expect workload in China to be very high, you might want to consider hiring people here on a full-time basis. If this is what you want to do, you may want to open your own company and have your own team on the ground.
If you are not planning to go in that direction, China outsourcing agents are an example of a company that can provide a wide range of services that may suit your needs.
What do China outsourcing agents do?
They take care of all your China outousrcing needs
They take care of all your outsourcing needs in China. In other words, they handle everything related to producing quality goods and shipping them to your destination country.
Most agents are flexible and allow you to choose either the specific services that cover the areas you need help with or an end to end service that covers all tasks related to supply chain, sourcing, manufacturing, quality control and vendor management.
Besides providing you the service you need, your service provider is also an excellent source of information.
Being located in China they are able to visit your suppliers more often and learn about changes in policies and regulations that can have a big effect on your cost.
