Welcome to China-Buy. If you import from China, or wish to manufacture in China, look no further.

China-Buy is a specialist project management, sourcing and procurement office, serving global importers with their China, Taiwan and Hong Kong import projects. We began as a small trading company assisting global importers with sourcing, inspections, negotiation, introductions and site visits, shipping formalities, documentation, etc.

These are essentially the same services we provide today, though with a much narrowed focus on the products we know best and in which our region specialises:

• Construction, General – China-Buy has been serving the needs of property developers and importers of construction-related materials and hardware, including the products listed below. We also specialise in housing “modules” – whole-house modules, pre-fabricated homes, pods and related components.
  
  
• Bathroomware, General – Bathroomware has developed as a key area of expertise, particularly acrylic and composite bathtubs, porcelain and ceramic sanitaryware, bathroom furniture and plumbing/tapware. Most of our clients are from North America and Australasia, so we have developed a particular specialisation for standards-compliant products and materials required by these regions.
  
  
• Plumbing and Tapware - We have assisted high-end importers from the USA, Canada, Australasia and Europe, from small importers to big-name plumbing companies, to source the appropriate standards-compliant plumbing and tapware for their respective markets. We have an array of key manufacturers and suppliers from China and Taiwan who have provided top quality and good service to our customers and who can handle OEM projects. We have also managed the production of OEM faucets with cUPC standards for Canada, using Taiwanese factories. Because of our good connections with these manufacturers and regular volume orders, we get excellent pricing and top service.
  
  
• Ceramic & Porcelain Sanitary ware - What we don't know about the porcelain and ceramic sanitary ware industry isn't worth knowing. On our team, we have university-trained ceramics experts who oversee management and quality control of our clients’ ceramic sanitary ware orders. Donald Trump developments are extremely particular, as you might imagine!
  
  
• Furniture - particularly bathroom furniture. Over the years we have come to know the Chinese supply side intimately and worked with top manufacturers, including those that supply such companies as Nova Deko Australia and many others. Through our efforts and presence in China, we like to think we have contributed in China furniture manufacturing having raised its standards in recent years, particularly in the area of bathroom furniture. With this experience behind us, any furniture order you place is guaranteed to go smoothly.
  
  
• Construction Glass - Having placed and managed large construction glass orders for major property developers including Australia’s NPM Group, we are in an excellent position to assist with all types of value-added glass product, including tempered and laminated glass for use in construction. We also handle related stainless steel and aluminium fittings such as balustrade stanchions.
  
  
• Stainless Steel and Aluminum Hardware - We have our own favourite manufacturing setups for the production of high quality stainless steel construction fittings of all types, including balustrade stanchions, glass standoffs, bathroom accessories and much more. OEM product design is welcome and we can assure top quality and service all the way.

EXPERIENCE IS OUR KEY TO SUCCESS! Experience and expertise is difficult to quantify in writing. However, China-Buy is especially valued by its clients for the following attributes: The depth of our knowledge of our specialist products Our ability to “manage” Chinese factories to get the best results, preferential treatment and best prices The ability to steer clear of trouble by knowing what to anticipate and the games factories play. Our zero tolerance for error and supremely high quality control standards. Our ability to get difficult things done through our vast network of connections and knowledge of how things work in China. Refined experience in terms of the subtleties and nuances of working with Chinese manufacturers and doing things “just so”. Expertise in order co-ordination/consolidation and all document and shipping related matters.

HOW WE WORK WITH OUR CLIENTS

Our clients want the supply side completely out of their hands so they can focus 100% on developing their markets, confident that what they ordered will be exactly what they will find when they open their containers. That is our commitment – on-time delivery at expected (or exceeded) standards of quality. WE WILL NOT LET OUR CUSTOMERS DOWN! EVER!

• China-Buy’s strength is total project management. The client provides the order, the specifications and the instructions, and we make sure the order goes to plan and is shipped on time. Our services range from determining the best factory to negotiating best prices, arranging samples, drawings, production scheduling, in-progress inspections and reports, photos, shipping and documents.
  
  
• Guarantees: The factories we work with agree to full replacement of defective goods, shipped at their own expense. By adopting a policy of regular in-progress (usually daily) inspections, we anticipate problems and deal with them before they have an impact. Packing is a key component of this success rate. We ensure all our customers’ products are packaged appropriately and prevent factories from ever taking short-cuts in this and every other aspect of their supply.
  
  
• Samples: We arrange and ship any samples required by the customer in the most cost-effective manner.

• Fee: Our standard fee is 10% of the invoice value of the goods shipped, payable upon completion of the order. Depending on the size of the order, payment terms are negotiable. Generally, terms are 30% deposit and balance upon shipment. Letter of Credit (L/C) is also acceptable, but we need to review the L/C terms first, most importantly to ensure that sufficient lead times are catered for.

MAIN BENEFITS OF USING CHINA-BUY:

Our clients can’t afford mistakes and appreciate our experience, saving them trial and error over a period of years. Even the best Chinese factories need constant monitoring; missing just one in-progress inspection could be costly as we have learned from harsh experience.
Our clients are able to confidently divest themselves of such concerns as whether they have chosen the right factory, whether they are getting the best price, whether their order has been properly scheduled and will meet their shipping deadlines, or whether their order is being left to the last minute then hurried through, resulting in sub-standard product.  We monitor everything from start to finish. When we inspect, we know exactly what we’re looking for and every factory we work with knows what we expect.
All your shipping and documentation concerns are well taken care of. Our trade director is university-trained, highly experience payments, documents and shipping guru. We’ve handled some of the most difficult situations and requests imaginable, but through our connections, we are usually able to achieve the seemingly impossible.  Whether you’re just receiving a sample or ten container loads, we will ensure that this process is trouble-free and as cost-effective as possible. Because of the large numbers of orders we regularly ship from China, we obtain very good shipping prices.
