  2. Why buy from China?

    a) Logistics advantage: We ship from Dalian, Ningbo, or Shanghai. These are the largest ports in China, which are convenient for ocean freight. You will always get your products on time.

    b) Price advantage: China is still low in labor and land costs. It has well established supply chains of raw materials necessary for the making of dies and molds, and die castings. There is no such premium as importing a certain raw material. You will always get the most competitive price possible.

    c) High quality: High quality is achieved by the implementation of total quality management system; the upgrading of the production equipment; and the regular training of engineers, production managers and workers.

    d) Political and Economic Stability: Compared to other developing countries, China has been politically and economically stable. There has never seen a political unrest in China since early 1990s, which interrupts your supply chains.
