ONE TEAM, END TO END
China sourcing services from factory search to shipment release.
Choose one stage or connect the full workflow. Each service page explains Aupeak's scope, evidence, approval point and fee approach.
When you cannot visit in person, our team checks the supplier's identity, production environment and practical capability on the ground.
From OEM and ODM details to new moulds, samples and packaging, we coordinate the work needed to turn an idea into a production-ready product.
A dedicated order-following team tracks milestones, keeps communication moving and surfaces issues before they become shipment delays.
Our QC team performs on-site checks against the agreed specification and uses AQL sampling for pre-shipment inspection where appropriate.
We coordinate trusted freight partners, consolidation and shipping arrangements across EXW, FOB, CIF and DDP trade terms.
A CONTROLLED PROCESS
Every handoff is visible.
A simple six-stage workflow turns scattered supplier messages into clear comparisons, checkpoints and next decisions.

Define the sourcing brief
Document the product, specification, quantity, target market, commercial assumptions, destination, timing and known risks.

Source and screen suppliers
Research suitable manufacturers, check initial fit and organise comparable quotations, MOQ, lead time, capability evidence and open questions.
- 03
Sample and freeze the reference
Coordinate samples, record revisions and confirm the approved specification, packaging or golden sample before mass production.

Follow production and changes
Track order milestones, material or component questions, approved changes and practical updates from the factory floor.

Inspect before release
Check finished goods against the approved reference and report defects, quantities, packing and corrective-action evidence before release.

Reconcile final cargo data, quality approval, documents, supplier deliveries and the handover to the buyer-approved freight setup.

The final MOQ is set by each factory, but we negotiate for the lowest practical quantity and look for options suited to SMEs, startups and product testing.
