Navigating China’s manufacturing landscape often feels like solving a puzzle with missing pieces. Global buyers struggle with inconsistent supplier data, delayed communication, and spreadsheet errors that derail procurement timelines. Traditional methods leave teams juggling multiple platforms while critical details slip through cracks.
