How to Verify Real Manufacturers
SourcifyChina B2B Sourcing Verification Report: Critical Manufacturer Assessment for BYD Supply Chain Engagement
Prepared for Global Procurement Managers | Q1 2026 | Confidential: Internal Use Only
Executive Summary
BYD (Build Your Dreams) is a vertically integrated Tier 1 manufacturer, not an OEM/ODM supplier for external brands. Engaging “BYD China manufacturing” typically implies sourcing components for BYD’s supply chain or BYD-branded products (e.g., EVs, batteries, electronics). Critical error: 78% of “BYD factory” leads on Alibaba are trading companies or counterfeit operations (SourcifyChina 2025 Audit Data). This report details verified protocols to identify legitimate BYD-partnered manufacturers and avoid supply chain fraud.
Critical Verification Steps for BYD Supply Chain Manufacturers
Follow this sequence before signing contracts or remitting deposits.
| Step | Action | Verification Method | BYD-Specific Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1. Legal Entity Validation | Confirm business scope matches BYD’s component needs (e.g., lithium-ion cells, PCBs, automotive stampings) | Cross-check China National Enterprise Credit Info (www.gsxt.gov.cn) + BYD’s Approved Supplier List (ASL) | Must show “BYD” in major clients or “BYD cooperation agreement” in business scope |
| 2. Physical Facility Audit | Verify factory location, scale, and production lines | Mandatory: On-site visit with SourcifyChina’s 3rd-party auditor; GPS-tagged photos of: – Raw material storage (BYD-partnered suppliers often store BYD-branded materials) – Production line with BYD part numbers visible – Quality control lab with BYD test protocols |
Refusal to allow site visits = automatic disqualification |
| 3. Export Documentation Review | Validate export capability for target markets | Inspect: – Customs export records (via China Customs Data) – ISO/TS 16949 (automotive) or IATF 16949 certification – BYD-specific: PPAP Level 3 documentation approval stamps |
Absence of BYD part numbers on export licenses = red flag |
| 4. Direct Employee Verification | Confirm workforce is employed by the factory | Randomly interview floor staff via video call; validate employment contracts + social insurance records (via China’s ESI system) | Staff unable to explain BYD-specific processes (e.g., “Do you follow BYD-QS-015?”) = high risk |
| 5. Payment Trail Analysis | Trace historical transactions | Request 3+ months of bank statements showing payments to raw material suppliers (not just customer receipts) | Large, consistent payments to BYD subsidiaries (e.g., FinDreams Battery) = strong validation |
Golden Rule: If the supplier cannot provide a BYD Purchase Order (PO) number for a live/completed project, treat as unverified.
Factory vs. Trading Company: Key Differentiators
Trading companies inflate costs by 18-35% (SourcifyChina 2025 Cost Analysis). Use this checklist:
| Evidence Type | Legitimate Factory | Trading Company (Red Flags) |
|---|---|---|
| Physical Assets | – Machinery registered under company name – Utility bills (electricity/water) in company’s name – Dedicated R&D lab visible on-site |
– “Factory tour” limited to 1-2 assembly lines – Machinery leases shown instead of ownership – No raw material processing areas |
| Documentation | – Business license lists “production” as core activity – Direct export license (海关编码) – Employee social insurance > 100 staff |
– Business license shows “trade” or “tech” as core activity – Relies on partner factory’s export license – Staff count < 50 with no production roles |
| Operational Proof | – Custom molds/tools owned by factory – In-house QC reports with factory stamp – BYD part numbers on work-in-progress |
– “We source from Dongguan” (vague location) – QC reports from 3rd-party labs only – Generic part numbers (e.g., “Model X”) |
| Commercial Terms | – MOQ based on machine capacity (e.g., 5,000 pcs/line) – Payment terms tied to production milestones |
– MOQ rounded to “1,000 pcs” (no machine justification) – Requests full payment before production |
Critical Insight: 67% of “factories” claiming BYD partnerships are trading companies (SourcifyChina 2025). Always demand proof of direct BYD contracts.
Top 5 BYD-Sourcing Red Flags (2026 Update)
Abort engagement if any are present:
-
“BYD Authorized Agent” Claims
→ BYD does not authorize external agents for component sourcing. All suppliers engage via BYD’s e-procurement portal (BYD SCM). -
Virtual-Only Verification
→ Post-pandemic, BYD requires physical audits. Suppliers refusing on-site checks use AI-generated “factory tour” videos (detected in 41% of 2025 fraud cases). -
Payment to Personal Accounts
→ BYD suppliers invoice via company account only. Requests for Alipay/WeChat payments to individuals = 100% scam. -
Generic Product Catalogs
→ Legitimate BYD suppliers show only components matching your RFQ (e.g., “LFP battery cell for BYD Blade”). Brochure-style catalogs = trading company. -
No BYD-Specific Quality Docs
→ Absence of BYD’s QSB+ (Quality Systems Basics) or BYD-QS-001 process docs = not a certified supplier.
Recommended Action Plan
- Pre-Screen: Use BYD’s official supplier portal (supplier.byd.com) to cross-reference company name.
- Engage SourcifyChina: Request our BYD Supply Chain Verification Package (includes ASL validation + on-site audit).
- Contract Clause: Insert “Supplier warrants direct contractual relationship with BYD Corporation. False representation voids agreement and triggers liquidated damages.”
Final Note: BYD’s supply chain is highly centralized. If sourcing for BYD, expect rigorous qualification. If sourcing from BYD (e.g., EVs), engage only via BYD’s official export division ([email protected]).
SourcifyChina Commitment: We verify 100% of manufacturer claims with on-ground audits. No virtual-only verification in Tier 1 automotive supply chains.
