Gera.Sourcing

Who we are

A small team in Zhejiang, and a deliberate decision not to own a factory.

We are a small sourcing team based in Zhejiang, China. We are not a
factory, and we are not a marketplace. We take a requirement, find the
right supplier for it, and stay accountable for the outcome from
quotation to container.

The choice we made

Why we do not own a factory.

Sourcing businesses often begin as a factory’s export department. The
incentive is obvious: you promote what you make. The problem is just as
obvious to the buyer — every requirement gets bent toward whatever that
factory happens to produce.

We chose the other structure. We do not own production, so we have no
reason to steer you toward one kind of product. When a requirement is
outside what we can do well, the honest answer is available to us, and
we give it.

The trade-off: we cannot promise you a tour of our own plant.
We can promise you that the recommendation you get is not driven by
what we happen to have sitting in a warehouse.

The team

Who you actually deal with.

We are a new company and a small one. We are not going to fill this
page with stock photographs of people in hard hats.

Sourcing and supplier development

Based in Zhejiang. Runs supplier screening, negotiation and
sampling. Your main contact for a new requirement.

Name and direct contact are provided when you open a
project with us.

Quality and follow-up

Runs production follow-up and pre-shipment inspection against the
approved sample, and chases the factory when a date moves.

Name and direct contact are provided when you open a
project with us.

In writing

What we commit to, and what we do not claim.

We commit to

  • Publishing our service fee rather than hiding it
  • Inspecting every order before shipment
  • Telling you when a schedule moves, at the time it moves
  • Saying no to a category we cannot handle safely
  • One counterparty on the invoice, so responsibility is not diffused

We do not claim

  • A number of years we have not been trading
  • A factory count or a client list we cannot evidence
  • Certifications on your behalf that we have not verified
  • Being the cheapest option in any category
  • A guarantee we cannot put in writing

The honest position on our track record: we are a newly
established sourcing business. We would rather show you an empty case-study
section and a defined process than a page of anonymous logos and numbers we
cannot stand behind. As projects complete and clients are willing to be
referenced, this page will change.

If that sounds like the partner you want, start here.

Send the product you want made or bought. We will tell you what we need
to quote it properly, and what our part will cost.
