Services
Everything between the factory floor and your warehouse. No question is too small and no order is too large — individuals, startups and established importers alike.
Sourced from the book first
Most sourcing requests are answered from the book before anybody searches a marketplace. A plant we have audited, argued with and shipped from is worth more than a cheaper quotation from one we have never seen, and the difference shows up in the second order rather than the first.

Six services, one company
Product sourcing
Electronics, IT accessories, home appliances, apparel, medical devices — from the Pearl River Delta factory clusters.
Quality control
Pre-production, in-line and pre-shipment inspection, with photographs and a written report before the goods leave.
Private label & OEM
Your logo, your packaging, your manual. Custom moulds and drawing-based production where the volume justifies it.
Warehouse & shipping
Consolidate several factories into one shipment. Sea, air or China–Europe rail, with battery paperwork handled.
Buy for me
Not importing a container? Send a link or a sample. Shenzhen Sunning Tension Industrial Co., Ltd. purchases it in China on your behalf, checks it and ships it.
Factory vetting
Licence checks, floor visits and re-verification on a schedule. We only list factories we would order from ourselves.
Finding a new factory, when the book does not have one
When a request needs a factory we do not have, we go and find one — and it goes through the same licence check and the same floor visit before it can quote you, not after.
Quality control on the floor, not in an inbox
Pre-production, during the run, and before shipment, with photographs and a written report each time. The pre-shipment inspection is the one that matters most: once the container is sealed and on the water, your remedies collapse into a claim.
On lithium products we check the things sampling does not catch — that the pack matches the specification rather than the label, and that the carton markings, watt-hour figure and dangerous-goods class are right before the goods reach a carrier that will refuse them.
Private label, packaging and tooling
Your logo, your retail box, your manual, your colour. For anything requiring a new mould, the company selling to you quotes the tooling as its own line and says what it amortises over, because a mould priced into the unit cost is a mould you pay for again on the reorder.
Where a design is your own, it stays your own. Drawings and tooling you have paid for are yours, and we will put that in writing before a factory sees a file.
Warehousing, consolidation and shipping
Receive from several factories, check against the packing list, hold until you are ready, then ship as one consignment. Consolidation is usually the single biggest saving on a mixed order — four suppliers in one container instead of four courier shipments.
Sea, air, or the Shenzhen–Europe rail where the timing suits. Battery paperwork, customs documentation and the declarations are prepared on our side.
How an order actually runs
STEP 1Enquiry & sourcing
Tell us the product or pick it from the catalogue. We match it to factories we already work with.
STEP 2Quotation & payment
A quote from the company that would make the goods — one, or several if you asked several. You pay that company direct.
STEP 3Production & QC
Inspection on the floor, pre-production, in-line and before shipment — ours, yours or a third party’s.
STEP 4Warehousing
Consolidate several factories into one shipment on our Shenzhen side. Store until you are ready.
STEP 5Shipping & delivery
Sea, air or the China–Europe rail. Customs paperwork and battery declarations, by the factory’s forwarder or ours.
Who sells to you, and who invoices you
On other platforms most of the "factories" are resellers, and their margin is in the price whether or not anybody tells you. Here the company that sells the goods is the company you contract with and pay: on most of the catalogue that is the member factory, which quotes you, invoices you and is paid by you direct; in consumer electronics it is Shenzhen Sunning Tension Industrial Co., Ltd., the company that runs this site, and its own listings carry the Official Factory badge. This platform is never a party to the sale.
- Every plant behind this service is a manufacturer we have been inside
- One counterparty, one contract, one invoice — the company that sells you the goods
- One price, quoted in full before you order — no fee is added to it afterwards
- Your details are never handed to a factory without your say-so
