China Sourcing Service · Buyer-side
Get China sourcing support without building a full-time team.
Sephalis helps overseas businesses research China-based suppliers, collect comparable commercial information, coordinate supplier communication, and make the next sourcing decision with clearer evidence.
When this may help
You have a real sourcing job, but no dedicated team on the ground in China.
This can fit a one-off sourcing project, a new product search, a supplier replacement, or temporary procurement support when you need structured China-side research and follow-through before committing to an order.
What to send Sephalis
A useful brief can start with a product name, image, specification, supplier link, or existing quotation. More context makes the research scope easier to define.
✓ Product name, image, link, drawing, or specification
✓ Estimated order quantity or annual volume
✓ Destination market
✓ Target timing
✓ Existing suppliers or quotations, if any
✓ Non-negotiable product or commercial requirements
What the work may produce
Deliverables depend on the agreed scope and available evidence. Supplier statements remain labeled as supplier-provided until appropriately supported.
✓ Candidate supplier shortlist
✓ Supplier contact and business-scope information
✓ Quotation, MOQ, lead-time, and sample information where obtained
✓ Comparable supplier facts and open questions
✓ Evidence sources and source dates
✓ Recommended next buyer action
Situations that often fit this service
These are common buyer situations rather than eligibility guarantees.
✓ You do not have employees in China
✓ You need several Chinese suppliers researched on the same brief
✓ You want quotations collected before deciding which supplier deserves more time
✓ You need someone to keep supplier questions and responses organized
✓ You need project-based support rather than a full-time procurement hire
✓ You want the final supplier decision to remain with your team
Buyer-side scope
Research and coordination support, not a supplier guarantee.
Sephalis works on the buyer side and does not receive supplier commissions. Scope is agreed per project. We do not guarantee supplier reliability, price, quality, certification, delivery, or business outcomes, and we do not replace specialist legal, quality, certification, or technical due diligence.
