Four independent verification layers applied to every manufacturer in the directory before any supplier introduction or payment commitment.
Confirms factory floor area, logistics access, and production activity signals. Verifies the factory exists at the stated address and operates at claimed scale.
Business registration, capital structure, litigation history, and export license status. Debt-laden or litigated entities are filtered at this stage.
Cross-references factory quotes against real market rates from Huaqiangbei ground agents. Hidden costs and below-market anomalies surface here.
On-site inspection with real-time video documentation. QC sampling, loading supervision, and final payment release on the ground — not in a spreadsheet.
