How a US Home Products Brand Reduced Supplier Risk and Saved 18% Cost in China
Background
A US-based home products brand was looking to source custom metal and plastic components from China. They had previously worked directly with suppliers found on online platforms but experienced inconsistent quality, late deliveries, and unclear communication.

The client approached AOMOOR SOURCING, seeking a reliable China sourcing agent to reduce procurement risk while maintaining competitive pricing.

The Key Problems
The main challenges included:

Unverified suppliers claiming to be manufacturers
Large price variations with no clear cost breakdown
Past shipments failing quality inspections in the US
No local team to monitor production or quality
Without local oversight, the client faced growing risk as order volumes increased.

Our Sourcing Strategy
AOMOOR SOURCING started with a structured sourcing process:

Supplier Shortlisting & Verification
We identified 8 potential factories and conducted background checks, business license verification, and production capability assessments.
Factory Audits
On-site audits were carried out at 3 shortlisted factories to evaluate equipment, quality systems, and management practices.
Cost Structure Analysis
Instead of negotiating only unit price, we analyzed raw material costs, tooling, packaging, and labor efficiency.
Quality Control Plan
A multi-stage inspection plan was implemented, including pre-production and final inspection.
The Results
27% reduction in total landed cost
Zero critical defects in final inspection
On-time delivery for all shipments
Long-term supplier partnership established
By working with AOMOOR SOURCING, the client transformed their China sourcing from reactive problem-solving to a controlled procurement system. AOMOOR SOURCING continues to support ongoing orders and supplier performance monitoring.
