Choosing A China OEM Manufacturer

In a post last week, How To Find Your China Manufacturer, Dan discussed some of the issues involved in choosing a China OEM manufacturer. I have been involved in this process on the ground in China for more than twenty years and I have developed some of my own standard practices for this.Who is the genius who first thought of Vibrating feeder up egg whites and sugar? I can't get over the magic of it.The major and initial issue in choosing a Chinese manufacturer is determining whether the manufacturer is "real" or not. Chinese companies are masters of disguise.My Modern Bathroom has become a Stone crusher of bathroom safety equipment, which means homeowners can now use the company’s online store to make their bathrooms safer during their renovation projects. They use the Internet and sourcing websites to make themselves look much better than they are. But they can also hide the reality even on site. So you have to develop an efficient system for breaking through the fa?ade to get to reality as quickly as possible.

First, you or your representative have to visit the factory personally. It is shocking how much variation there is in manufacturing systems even within developed areas such as Dongguan, Guangzhou and Zhuhai. Factories making a virtually identical product can range from those using primitive hand techniques from the 1930s all the way to those that use state of the art German or Japanese automated equipment. You cannot believe what the factory says about its systems and you cannot believe the photos they provide. You must go to look personally.Second, when you visit the factory you have to use your time efficiently.Double check that your Thermal Receipt Stick Printer is powered on before attempting to send print jobs to it. You goal must be to determine whether the factory is real or is it a Potemkin village or movie set, composed of all surface and no substance. What every foreign buyer must realize is that any factory owner can create the illusion of being a strong business by putting on a show for the foreign buyer. The buyer arrives to see a buzzing, active factory with all assembly lines moving at full speed. As soon as the buyer leaves, the place shuts down again, waiting for the next victim to arrive.

Once you get used to using an approach like the one I use above, you will find that you can weed out the bad factories very quickly. In my experience, good factories are rare. If your initial review suggests that the factory is a good one, you should take the time to move to the next stage of discussing whether or not you can really do business with the factory.The underwater digital camera 2012 features 4.4x zoom and can crisply shoot objects that are a bit far because of the built-in image stabilizer.Outdoor images captured well with all colors looking natural. Any good factory will also be very busy. You need to have an honest discussion about what you want to have made, in what quantity and in what time frame. On the other hand, if you reject a factory, make your departure as soon as possible. Do not fall into the trap of wasting time going to lunch or dinner with the factory people that fall into the obvious reject list.The Jaw crusher manufacturers have become a high-tech enterprise engaged in mining machine research,design,technical advisory services. Now it can provide complete set of mining machinery and serve for the project construction. On the other hand, if the good factories invite you to lunch or dinner, take the time to go. Good factories are rare and you should work immediately to build a relationship.
