Quanyu Q.
China Sourcing Agent | Industrial, OEM & POD | Factory Checks
I help overseas buyers source products in China, compare suppliers, and coordinate orders from samples to shipment. Based in Guangzhou, I support industrial procurement, OEM projects, and POD/personalized products, including low-MOQ and single-piece orders. You can hire me for supplier research, RFQs, quotation and PI review, negotiation, samples, factory checks, and production follow-up. I clarify specifications, MOQ, lead times, packaging and open questions, then keep supplier conversations and next steps organized in English. Factory visits include reports of visible findings and permitted photos or videos. Recent industrial work covers energy-storage batteries and prototype coordination; solar modules and inverters; ATS equipment and industrial motors; excavator OEM sourcing; and construction materials such as 18 mm formwork, aluminum beams and steel pipes. I also coordinate cosmetic packaging sourcing and custom-mold development. For solar and inverter projects, supplier screening follows the relevant product-level UL certification requirements. My POD and personalized-product experience includes wall art, pillows, hoodies, printed glass artwork, UV-printed products and jewelry. I help find factories willing to handle smaller orders and work through customization, pricing, packing and shipping handovers. In one ESS copper-terminal project, I helped introduce an alternative manufacturing route that reduced procurement cost by approximately 30%. I have 5+ years of procurement and supply-chain experience and hold a bachelor's degree from the University of South Carolina's Darla Moore School of Business. Cantonese is my native language; I also work in Mandarin and English. I work for the buyer, with transparent service fees, no supplier commissions and no hidden product markups. Share your product photos or specifications, target quantity and destination through Upwork, and I can recommend a practical first stage.
