How can we find a suitable partner from China
As a professional medical device distributor locally, we receive many emails from China supplier, they showed us nice photos and beautiful brochures. But how can we determine if they are a trusted partner? International flight is one option, but can we find a more cost effective way?
Barrier of finding a reliable partner
From low-value consumables to high-tech, Chinese manufacturers are able to provide all kinds of solutions with acceptable cost. But how to build your trust with the first time meeting partner from China?
Calture shock
Unfortunately Mandarin is quite hard to learn. What makes things even worse, In China people not get used to communicate by email/Whatsapp. Most of the case, the company phone which goes to front desk, cannot understand English
Time difference
Most of the case, different time zone makes the communication for first time even harder. People always need a instant feedback to stay concentrated
Travel expense
Fly to have an onsite inspection is alway the best. “Seeing is believing” However considering the cost of visa/air ticket/accommodation and the time spend on the trip. Small scale companies may find better solution.
