Why work with us
Unlike the majority of sourcing companies, we do not take any commission from manufacturers or any of our partners. From the outset we are happy to provide you with a full breakdown of any costs included in the entire process. We keep you in the loop from beginning to end so you’re in control of your own supply chain.
We don’t finish at 5
We work flexible hours to accommodate the time difference with China and ensure we’re present while our China based partners and manufacturers are at work. This ensures your project moves forward as quickly as possible without any delays.
Save time and money
Establishing a dedicated sourcing team can take a lot of time and money and is often not feasible for many small to medium sized businesses. This is why Ginkgo is here to help – we operate as your sourcing department. We help your business reduce your total landed costs by combining the purchasing power of all our clients to negotiate bulk shipping rates, insurance and quality control inspections. We also save you a huge amount of time by taking care of the whole sourcing process and all the communication involved.
New Zealand owned and operated
Ginkgo is 100% New Zealand owned and run, which helps avoid any miscommunication and misunderstandings that may arise throughout the process. Our years of experience working with Chinese factories will ensure that no detail is lost when communicated on to manufacturers.
Reduced risk
Ginkgo implements best industry practices to avoid the many pitfalls and reduce the risks when working with low cost manufacturers in China. We develop a quality assurance plan for your project to get your goods produced at the quality standards you require.
Greater supply chain control
By taking full control of your supply chain you can cut out the many unnecessary middle men which make your business more competitive, while still increasing your profit margin. By importing directly from manufacturers, you can determine a lot more about product specifications to meet the particular needs of your business.
Your local link to international sourcing
Ginkgo operates as your team on the ground in New Zealand. We can meet with you to discuss your ideas and requirements and then communicate these to low cost manufacturers in China and other emerging economies.
Established network
Ginkgo has an established network of partners and manufacturers all over China. We regularly attend trade fairs and conduct factory inspections to continue expanding and building our network.
