About Our Team

We're an outsourced, fractional sourcing and manufacturing department for consumer product brands. We get your stuff made in China. Think of us like the general contractor building your house. You talk to the general contractor, and they go figure out the best plumber, the best electrician, and the best framer to use. That's how we work. You come to us with what you need and then we go find the best factory for your specific product, matched to your size/scale, and then we run that relationship for you. Our US team collaborates with founders during normal business hours. Our China team is in and out of factories every day. It works best when you just treat us like an extension of your team. We handle product sourcing, sample development, factory negotiation, sub-supplier control, quality inspection, tooling, shipping coordination, and a whole lot more so that you can focus on sales, marketing, and scaling your business

Founders who already have a working product, a working sales operation, and are out in the wilderness trying to manage their own China manufacturing. That's our sweet spot. Most of our best clients came to us because they were burning hours messaging someone named Cindy on Alibaba at 11pm, or they were getting poor results from their “guy in China" agent/freelancer, or they were with a trading company that kept moving production to different factories behind their back. If you're running an Amazon brand doing reorders on repeat, or you're a Shark Tank brand that needs to scale into retail, or if you've got five products and want a single point of contact instead of juggling five factory relationships...we're built for you. You focus on what you're great at and we handle the manufacturing side in China. That's the ideal partnership.[See: Am I too early to work with you?]

Our US team is based in Austin, Texas with an additional office in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Our China team is based in Dongguan. The structural reason this matters: US-based founders get to work with our project managers during normal US business hours instead of staying up at midnight trading emails with a Hong Kong trading company. Time zones are one of the most underrated pain points in direct China sourcing. We remove that pain by having a US-based layer on top of our boots-on-the-ground China team

We've worked with 52+ brands to date, including a dozen Shark Tank companies. Our active client base spans pet products, outdoor gear, kitchen and baking, personal safety, audio electronics, packaging, kids toys, sporting goods, and drinkware.
