Talk to us ↗Manufacturing in China and across Asia
We work with manufacturers and suppliers in China, Vietnam, India and Pakistan, among other markets. Our head office is in Malmö, Sweden, with a partner office in Hong Kong and a local office in Zhejiang. This network helps us explore manufacturing options, materials, production capabilities and quality requirements for each project.
No single manufacturing country is the right choice for every product. We help evaluate product construction, order volumes, lead times and overall costs to find an appropriate solution.
We explore suppliers in China and other parts of Asia based on your specifications and production quantities.
Products can be tailored with your own materials, colours, dimensions, functions, branding and packaging.
We help coordinate sampling, quality assurance, shipping and importing according to the agreed arrangements.
Importing from China to Sweden and Europe
Importing from China involves more than obtaining a unit price. Product specifications, supplier selection, sampling, manufacturing, shipping, customs procedures and delivery all need to be coordinated.
We can assist with sea freight, air freight and other transport solutions according to your budget and schedule. Delivery terms, shipping costs and any customs arrangements are specified in the quotation rather than automatically included in every price.
