our service - sourcing flooring & accessories from china
With an uncertain global market and an ever pressing need to reduce costs, an increasing number of manufacturers and distributors are seeking to take advantage of sourcing lower cost products from the Far East.
Even with recent currency devaluations, this still makes commercial sense for many sectors of the industry.
However, many companies lack the experience and resources to commence the long, painstaking and difficult trawl through the many factories on offer to find a product that consistently meets their requirements.
phoenix ryzing can provide the solution
With an established track record in the sourcing of a wide range of flooring and flooring accessories, Phoenix Ryzing has over the years evolved a comprehensive sourcing programme which covers;
an understanding of the necessary cost and resource savings to make it worthwhile to
move away from existing suppliers
the development of comprehensive product specifications and quality requirements
to ensure that the customer gets a product appropriate to their local market.
the selection of a supplier who will meet the ongoing needs of the customer
regular discussions to ensure that the customer continues to gain the most favourable price.
In many cases we benefit from having an existing volume of sales to other distributors throughout the World and this enables us to gain preferential pricing.
on site product quality checks and an ongoing quality control programme. We believe that simply checking material prior to being shipped results in a waste of time money and resource for all parties involved. We therefore look at the manufacturing process to identify areas of weakness where we can improve the quality.
trading agreements under Chinese law where required.
identifying the most beneficial freight forwarding service.
management of commercial and customs documentation and taking care of the entire importing process.
