Sourcing Service

We do the factory work, you do the selling

KGX Trade acts as your buying office in mainland China for two clearly separated divisions — Guangxi Zhongshan G460 granite and plumbing & sanitary products. We match the right factory to your price point, control quality before shipment, consolidate suppliers where practical and provide a complete export document set.

What we handle

Six things you stop worrying about

1 · Sourcing & price benchmarking

We quote from more than one factory per item wherever possible, so you see the real market price — not one supplier's asking price.

2 · Specification translation

Your market requirement becomes a factory-ready spec sheet: wattage ladder, plug standard, packing, carton markings, finish and tolerance.

3 · Sampling & approval

Stone samples, product samples, colour-box artwork and serial-numbered warranty cards approved before mass production starts.

4 · Production follow-up

Weekly production status with photos, so a late shipment is something you hear about early — not at the port.

5 · Inspection & loading

Pre-shipment inspection against the approved spec: quantity, finish, function test, carton markings and a photo report per lot.

6 · Consolidation & documents

Multiple factories, one container. Invoice, packing list, certificate of origin and B/L handled and couriered to you.

Process

From enquiry to container in six steps

Quality control

What "inspected" actually covers

Quantity & cartons

Counted against the final packing list; carton markings, model labels and "Made in China" marking verified.

Function test

Water heaters powered and flow-tested; valves, faucets and pumps checked for leaks and operation.

Finish & colour

Stone bundles opened and checked for shade variation, chips, cracks and thickness; gloss spot-checked.

Photo report

A dated photo set per lot — loading, carton detail and defects — sent before the container is sealed.

FAQ

Questions buyers ask us first

Can you mix stone and plumbing in one container?

Yes — that is one of the main reasons clients use us. Stone bundles are loaded first as bottom weight, with cartons of sanitary ware, heaters and fittings secured above and documented on a single packing list.

Do you work with our own factory or brand?

Both. If you already have a supplier, we can act as QC and consolidator only. If you need a new source, we benchmark several factories against your spec and target price.

What is the minimum order?

Stone starts at 100 m² per size and finish. Plumbing MOQ varies by model — small trial orders are acceptable on most items, and we will tell you when a quantity is too small to be economic.

Who issues the certificates?

The factory issues CCC / CE / CB / ISO certificates and the stone test report; we verify validity and include copies in the document set. Destination-specific certification is quoted separately.

How do you handle damage or shortage claims?

We compare your receiving report against the loading photo report, then negotiate with the factory on your behalf. Spare-parts ratios and packing upgrades are built into repeat orders to prevent recurrence.
