PURCHASING MANAGEMENT

Let us manage the order with your supplier.

Once you've chosen a supplier, SOURDEN can coordinate purchasing, supplier communication, production follow-up and order details from China.

PRODUCTION FOLLOW-UP

WHAT WE DO

One partner between you and the supplier.

Managing a China order can involve repeated communication, changing details, production follow-up and coordination between different parties.

We help organize that process so you don't have to manage every supplier interaction yourself.

WHAT WE HANDLE

The parts of the order we take on.

  • Quotation Confirmation

    Confirm product details, quantities, pricing and other order information before purchasing.

  • Supplier Communication

    Communicate with suppliers regarding product and order requirements.

  • Order Placement

    Coordinate the purchasing process once the order details have been confirmed.

  • Production Follow-Up

    Follow up with suppliers on production progress and relevant order updates.

  • Packaging & Labeling

    Coordinate agreed packaging, labeling or other order requirements when applicable.

  • Issue Coordination

    Help communicate with the supplier when questions or issues arise during the order process.

HOW IT WORKS

From confirmation through to shipment.

    Confirm the supplier, product specifications, quantity and quotation.

  2. 02 Place the Order

  3. 03 Follow Up

    Monitor production progress and communicate relevant updates.

  4. 04 Confirm Before Shipment

WHEN YOU NEED THIS

You already have a supplier. You just need someone to manage the process.

  • You already have a supplier in China.
  • You don't want to communicate with the supplier directly.
  • You need help following up production.
  • You have multiple order details that need coordination.
  • You need someone in China to help manage the purchasing process.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

Less supplier communication for you.

  • Order detail coordination
  • Supplier communication
  • Purchasing coordination
  • Production follow-up
  • Packaging and labeling follow-up when applicable
  • Communication around order issues

You remain responsible for approving the product, specifications, quotation and order. SOURDEN coordinates the sourcing work around those decisions.
