Become a supplier
We list manufacturers. If your company is a trading company (外贸公司), this is not the platform for you — and that is exactly why our buyers trust the prices here.
Manufacturers only, and we mean it
Every price on YCP is a factory price, because every supplier is a factory. A colleague reads your business licence (营业执照) and has to record that you manufacture before you can be approved — no trading companies, and no exceptions for a paid tier.
Apply online
The application is one online form. You submit it, a colleague reads it, and you do not have to talk to a salesperson first.
You normally hear back within two working days. The review costs nothing, and Bronze stays free after it.
Manufacturers only, with no exceptions at any price
No trading company will be listed on this site, including free at Bronze. This is not a policy we intend to soften for a large enough cheque, because the claim it protects — every seller here is a factory, so every price is first-hand — is false for the entire catalogue the moment one exception is made.
We check the business scope (经营范围) on your business licence and we visit the production address. If both are in order the listing is free; the paid tiers only change where you appear.
What no tier buys
The verification mark, the audit record and the last-visit date are earned by passing a visit and cannot be purchased at any tier. Nor does any tier give a factory a direct channel to a buyer: every enquiry lands with YCP and our staff decide who quotes it.
That last point is worth being blunt about before you pay for anything. A membership makes you more visible to our buyers and more likely to be shortlisted. It does not entitle you to receive enquiries directly, and any salesperson who tells you otherwise is describing a different product.
How to start
Use the apply button on this page: it takes your registered company name, your Unified Social Credit Code (统一社会信用代码), your province and city, and the business scope (经营范围) from your business licence. A colleague who reads Chinese reviews it, and we come back with what we still need — the categories you make, your monthly capacity, your main certifications — and arrange the visit.
Hong Kong companies cannot be admitted at this stage: an HK company has no Unified Social Credit Code and no business scope (经营范围), so this check cannot be applied to it at all.
The three tiers
| Tier | Per year | What it includes |
|---|---|---|
| Bronze | Free | Listed in the category factory list, counted in the factory count badge, and eligible for enquiries. Your registered company name is shown to signed-in buyers only. Free, permanently, for every vetted factory in our book. |
| Gold | ¥12,888.00 | Everything in Bronze, with placement in the middle band of every category list you appear in, and priority in the sourcing shortlist our staff work from. |
| Diamond | ¥17,888.00 | Everything in Gold, plus your registered company name shown publicly — to guests and to search engines — top placement in your category lists, and eligibility for the featured slot on a product card. Capped per category so the placement stays worth having. |
Next step: apply
Being listed costs nothing; the paid tiers only change where you appear. Apply first, pass the vetting, then decide whether a tier is worth it.
