Frequently Asked Questions
What is strategic product sourcing?
Strategic sourcing goes beyond finding any supplier — it means finding the right supplier at the right price with the right quality, reliability, and compliance profile for your specific market. China24 evaluates suppliers against your business goals, not just your product spec.
How long does the sourcing process take?
For standard products, we identify qualified suppliers within 5–7 business days. Custom or complex products may take 10–14 days. Sample procurement and approval add 2–4 weeks. We provide a full timeline at the start of each project.
How many suppliers do you evaluate before recommending one?
We typically evaluate 10–20 potential suppliers and shortlist 3–5 for your review. Our evaluation covers product quality, production capacity, pricing, export experience, certifications, and compliance with Arab market requirements.
Can you source products that are not on Alibaba?
Yes. Many of China's best manufacturers don't have strong Alibaba presence. We leverage our on-the-ground network, trade show contacts, and industry associations to find specialized suppliers — particularly for custom, industrial, or regulated products.
Do you provide sourcing for private label and OEM products?
Yes. Private label (your brand on an existing product) and OEM (custom-manufactured to your specifications) are both within our scope. We manage tooling, sampling, packaging design coordination, and production for both models.
