Contract manufacturing in China<\/a> has become increasingly popular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This option suits large organizations that don’t want to own factories or invest in capital equipment and smaller companies where building production facilities isn’t feasible. Beyond the cost savings, using a Chinese contract manufacturer allows firms to focus their efforts on product innovation, sales, and marketing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outsourcing to a contract manufacturer can be a smart move for a large company with significant volume, good leverage, and relatively mature products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But for smaller companies early in their product development cycle, they risk limiting options too soon. Once you select a contract manufacturer, you are bound to their factories and equipment and stuck with their pricing and terms. You will have little leverage to negotiate with smaller volumes than the bigger companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While China is the most popular country to produce products, doing 28.7% of global manufacturing<\/a> in 2019, contract manufacturing in China is not for everyone. You can still source from China or other overseas manufacturing hubs, even if you don’t go directly to a contract manufacturer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article, we’ll look at the steps to take before sourcing a manufacturing partner, the types of partners available in China, and some suggestions for sourcing a Chinese factory. We’ll go further into the process and examine what to do during production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then we’ll consider how to leverage a managed marketplace model as an alternative to finding the right partner for your company and product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
