Advisory

Most sourcing problems aren't manufacturing problems.

They are qualification, compliance and follow-up problems — and every one of them is cheaper to solve before the first order than after it.

End-to-end sourcing

From first market mapping to a verified purchase order. Supplier qualification done properly rather than by catalogue — factory reality checked against what the sales office promised.

Supplier shortlist  ·  Sourcing plan  ·  Sample handling

Supply chain set-up

Resilient structures around your suppliers — logistics flows mapped, supplier tiers defined, and the operational framework that lets you import on a schedule instead of on hope.

Flow map  ·  Tier structure  ·  Lead-time model

Risk & regulatory guidance

Tariff exposure, import restrictions, CBAM implications and EU regulatory compatibility — identified while you can still change supplier, not when the container has already landed.

Risk register  ·  Compliance gaps  ·  Tariff review

Procurement & negotiation

Direct negotiation support and quality follow-up in Mandarin, on Chinese business terms — acting as your operational point of contact with the manufacturer.

Method

Relationships in China.

Evidence in the report.

SinoNord combines direct supplier relationships with structured research and established procurement practice — so a recommendation can be traced back to something rather than simply asserted.

一

Local insight

Direct supplier relationships and regional market knowledge in China. Context and contacts that desk research cannot produce — SinoNord operates where the market actually is.

二

Best practice driven

Structured supplier benchmarking, pricing intelligence, regulatory compatibility checks and risk-mapped sourcing frameworks. Proven method rather than instinct.

三

Tangible results

Every engagement closes with something you can act on — shortlists, risk assessments, sourcing strategies and evaluation reports. Success is measured by outcome.

Deliverables

What lands on your desk.

Documents your team can work from — not a slide deck of observations.

策

Sourcing strategy & screening

Built around your product category, volume requirements and risk tolerance, including screening of alternatives to reduce concentration risk.

评

Evaluation & due diligence

Manufacturing capability, financial stability, compliance posture and reputational risk — assessed before you commit capital.

险

Risk & investment advisory

A structured review before entering new supplier relationships or product categories — tariffs, restrictions, volatility, EU requirements.

行

Execution & representation

SinoNord acts as your dedicated point of contact in China — negotiations, supplier management, progress and quality reporting.

Who you will be talking to

“Most of my work is telling clients what a supplier will actually do, not what they said they would do.”
