Steps before the client arrives to China

The client sends a design project or a list of goods, and we begin discussing the details of the order and the arrival. After the client pays a deposit of $2000 (which we will deduct from the total purchase amount at the end), we sign a contract with the client and start discussing the exact arrival date. We can provide the client with an invitation letter from China for a business visa application. After obtaining the visa, we offer the client assistance with booking flights, hotels, and other services.

Process on arriving to China

A personal manager meets the client at the airport and arranges the transfer and accompanies the client on the way to a hotel. While meeting in the company office, we discuss all the details of the order and show you a report on the products from the factories that we have selected based on the client's project. The manager takes the client to the factories and showrooms in Foshan, shows the selected items, discusses the product’s features with the supplier, provides high-quality translation service, makes a shopping list, and, if necessary, arranges trips to other nearby cities. After all selections are made, the manager and the client return to the office to discuss the final details of the order. If the order list is already completed and approved, the client pays the total deposit for all of the products, and the manager prepares invoices for transfer from the company's account to the factories' accounts.

Questions & Answers

How to finalize the order?

If you want to change something or finalize the order, contact your manager. According to our experience, most of the clients finalize their orders only when they go back home.

What happens after the order is finalized?

If there are any changes in the order, you should pay the rest of the deposits to the suppliers. When the factory gets the deposit, it starts the production.

Is it possible to cancel some items?

Unfortunately, most of the suppliers never return deposits. You can give up some items but you will lose 50% of the cost.

Do you provide an invitation letter for a visa application?

Yes, we can provide the invitation letter, we just need a picture of your ID for it.

Can I prolong my trip when I’m already in China?

Yes, if there are available managers.

Does the company make design-projects?

Unfortunately, we don’t provide this service but we can help to find everything for any design-project.

Is it necessary to have a design-project to buy furniture?

It is not necessary but it is better if you have it. We recommend choosing a certain style, make a list of things you are going to buy and send it to your manager as soon as possible. And be sure to bring all lists and floor plans with you to China.

How much money should I spend on my project? Can you make an approximate quote?

It is a very popular service in some countries. However, Chinese factories don't work like this. It is a pretty hard procedure because of numerous suppliers in Foshan. Anyway, you can contact our managers, and they will make an approximate quote for you.

I have only a few days. Will I have enough time?

It depends on what exactly you want to buy. To save some time you should know what items and how many of them you need. Send all your lists, documents and plans to your manager, so he/she will start research in advance. In this case, it is possible to buy everything in 2-3 days because the manager will make a special route for visiting showrooms.
