Trusted by importers in eight countries.
“We have been sourcing electrical components through Makehe for over two years. Their factory verification and pre-shipment inspections have caught defects that would have cost us tens of thousands of dirhams. Single point of accountability — exactly what we needed.”
“Setting up our WFOE in Shanghai took 8 weeks end-to-end. Bank account opening was the only step that required me to fly in. Their team handled every other filing in both English and Mandarin — extraordinary value.”
“I import home and kitchen ware to Nairobi. Makehe sources, inspects, ships, and clears customs at Mombasa — I just receive the goods at my warehouse. Margins are healthier and stress is lower since we started.”
“The escrowed payment structure is what convinced our board. We pay Makehe — they release to the factory only after our quality team signs off on the pre-shipment inspection. That removed counterparty risk entirely.”
“Medical-grade safety products require certifications that small importers struggle to verify. The Makehe compliance team checks every certificate and HS code before we commit to an order.”
“Started with one trial order of 200 pieces. Three years later we are running monthly containers. Makehe scaled with us — same accountable team, no surprises.”
Quick answers, before you ask.
A few of the questions we hear most often. The full list covers sourcing, shipping, payments, and company setup.
How do you verify a Chinese supplier?
Every shortlisted factory is checked against AIC business license records, asked for export track record and recent ISO/BSCI/SEDEX audits if applicable, and visited in person by a Makehe team member or third-party inspector. We require at least three reference clients before we sign a master agreement.
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) you can support?
MOQ depends on the factory and product. We typically work with MOQs from a few hundred pieces for accessories up to multi-container industrial orders. For very small trial orders, we use trading-company partners with low MOQ at a small markup.
Can you handle private label and OEM/ODM development?
Yes. We manage tooling deposits, sample iterations, packaging design, and IP protection (signing mutual NDAs and where relevant, registering trademarks in China before tooling).
What kinds of goods do you source?
Consumer electronics, home & kitchen, apparel & textiles, industrial machinery, auto parts, beauty & personal care, furniture, construction hardware, medical & safety, toys & sports, branded/promotional goods — and almost anything else manufactured in China.
How is quality controlled before shipment?
Standard engagements include a pre-shipment inspection (PSI) by a third-party QC firm or Makehe staff: AQL 2.5 sampling, function/safety test per spec, label/packaging check, photo and video report within 24 hours.
What happens if the goods do not match the spec?
Because Makehe contracts and pays the factory, we hold the leverage. We negotiate rework, repacking, replacement, or refund before releasing the final 70% of the payment. You are not stuck chasing a foreign factory yourself.
“I founded Makehe Shanghai Trading Ltd with one clear vision — to make China trade simple, safe, and profitable for businesses worldwide. We continue to grow and serve clients with honesty, professionalism, and excellence.”
