Do business in China with someone on the ground

I help you turn a product brief or business trip into useful meetings, clear conversations and practical next steps across Shenzhen, Guangzhou and southern China.

Local context, not a generic directory

Know where to go, who to meet and what to ask

China offers an enormous number of fairs, markets, factories and suppliers. The difficult part is not finding a name online — it is choosing the right route, communicating clearly and recognising what needs further verification.

I prepare the business day around your actual product and objective, then help you navigate the conversations on the ground. You remain in control of suppliers, contracts and payments.

Choose the right starting point

Business support built around your goal

Start with a specific service or send the brief first. I will tell you honestly which route is worth your time.

    Product, target, dates, current suppliers and what a successful trip should achieve.

  4. 4

    Work on the ground

    I help you navigate, interpret and capture the information needed for the next decision.

Independent support

You keep control of every commercial decision

I do not take supplier payments, sign contracts for you or promise that a supplier is risk-free. My role is to improve preparation, access, communication and clarity.

When specialist verification matters

For quality inspections, legal due diligence, contracts, certification or laboratory testing, I will recommend using an appropriately qualified independent provider. This keeps responsibilities clear and protects your business.

Good to know

Business support in China — FAQ

Can you help outside the Canton Fair?

Yes. Support can include supplier research, showroom or market visits, factory-visit coordination, interpreting and practical business-trip help in Shenzhen, Guangzhou and the Greater Bay Area.

Do you act as a supplier or purchasing agent?

No. I provide independent research, communication, interpreting and on-the-ground support. You choose the supplier, enter into contracts directly and control all commercial payments.

Can you organise a factory visit?

I can research suitable visits, help coordinate the schedule and join you for local navigation and interpreting. The factory confirms access, and any specialist legal, technical or quality audit remains a separate professional service.

How is business support priced?

Canton Fair support is €299 for one full day or €790 for a three-day Business Sprint per corporate team. Sourcing, interpreting and factory-visit work receives a written individual proposal based on the brief, preparation and time required.

Start with the objective

Tell me what you need to achieve in China

Send the product, dates and current situation. I will reply personally with the most useful next step — without a sales call or commitment.
