How to Verify Real Manufacturers

china custom manufacturing

Professional B2B Sourcing Report 2026

Prepared for: Global Procurement Managers
Subject: Critical Steps to Verify a Manufacturer for China Custom Manufacturing
Publisher: SourcifyChina – Senior Sourcing Consultants
Date: January 2026


Executive Summary

As global supply chains continue to evolve, China remains a pivotal hub for custom manufacturing across electronics, machinery, textiles, and industrial components. However, the complexity of distinguishing genuine factories from trading companies—and identifying high-risk suppliers—has increased due to digital intermediaries and opaque supply structures.

This report outlines a structured verification framework to ensure procurement integrity, reduce supply chain risk, and optimize sourcing outcomes. It includes actionable steps, verification tools, red flags, and best practices tailored for professional procurement teams.


1. Critical Steps to Verify a Manufacturer in China

Step Action Purpose Verification Tools/Methods
1. Confirm Legal Business Registration Validate company name, Unified Social Credit Code (USCC), and registered address via official Chinese government databases. Ensure legal existence and legitimacy. National Enterprise Credit Information Publicity System (http://www.gsxt.gov.cn)
– Third-party tools: TofuData, Panjiva, Kompass
2. Conduct On-Site or Remote Factory Audit Assess production capacity, equipment, workflow, and quality control systems. Verify manufacturing capability and infrastructure. Third-party inspection firms (e.g., SGS, Bureau Veritas, QIMA)
– Live video audit via Teams/Zoom with 360° walkthrough
3. Review Production Equipment and Technology Evaluate machinery age, automation level, and maintenance records. Confirm technical capability for custom production. – Request equipment list with purchase dates
– Ask for production line videos
4. Audit Quality Management Systems (QMS) Check for ISO 9001, IATF 16949, or industry-specific certifications. Ensure consistent quality control. – Request certification copies
– Verify via certification body database
5. Analyze Export History and Client References Review shipment records and contact past/present clients. Validate export reliability and customer satisfaction. – Use Panjiva, ImportGenius, or Cosco Bill of Lading data
– Request 3 verifiable client references with case studies
6. Evaluate R&D and Engineering Support Assess in-house design, prototyping, and engineering teams. Determine customization capability. – Request portfolio of past custom projects
– Interview lead engineer (if possible)
7. Confirm Ownership of Intellectual Property (IP) and NDA Compliance Ensure IP protection protocols and signed non-disclosure agreements. Prevent IP theft and design leakage. – Use bilingual NDA drafted by legal counsel
– Audit IP clauses in contract

2. How to Distinguish Between a Trading Company and a Factory

Misidentifying a trading company as a factory leads to inflated costs, communication delays, and reduced control over production. Use the following indicators to differentiate:

Indicator Genuine Factory Trading Company
Business Registration Lists “manufacturing” as core activity; owns industrial land or factory premises. Lists “trading,” “import/export,” or “sales”; no production facilities.
Facility Photos Shows production lines, CNC machines, injection molding units, QC labs. Generic office images, product catalogs, stock photos.
Staff Expertise Engineers and production managers can discuss technical specs, tolerances, materials. Sales reps focus on pricing and delivery; defer technical questions.
Pricing Structure Quotes based on material + labor + overhead; may offer MOQ flexibility. Adds significant margin; pricing often rigid with high MOQs.
Lead Times Can explain production scheduling, machine availability, and bottlenecks. Provides estimates without operational detail.
Website & Marketing Highlights factory size, machinery, certifications, R&D. Focuses on product range, global clients, “one-stop sourcing.”
Export Data Appears as manufacturer/shipper in Bill of Lading records. Rarely listed as shipper; often invisible in export logs.

Pro Tip: Ask for a factory gate video with GPS timestamp and a walkthrough of the production line during a live call. Trading companies cannot provide this.


3. Red Flags to Avoid in China Custom Manufacturing

Red Flag Risk Recommended Action
Unwillingness to conduct a factory audit (onsite or virtual) High risk of misrepresentation or non-existent facility. Disqualify supplier until audit is completed.
No verifiable USCC or mismatched registration details Potential scam or shell company. Cross-check on GSXT and refuse further engagement.
Prices significantly below market average Indicates substandard materials, hidden fees, or fraud. Request detailed cost breakdown; verify material sources.
Poor English communication with no technical staff available Risk of miscommunication and quality issues. Require bilingual project manager or hire interpreter.
Refusal to sign NDA or IP agreement High risk of design theft or unauthorized production. Do not share technical drawings until NDA is signed.
Pressure for large upfront payments (e.g., 100% TT) Common in fraudulent operations. Use secure payment terms: 30% deposit, 70% against BL copy.
No third-party certifications or quality documentation Indicates lax quality control. Require ISO or industry-specific certs before PO.
Inconsistent or evasive answers during technical discussions Suggests lack of in-house manufacturing. Request direct conversation with production supervisor.

4. Best Practices for Procurement Managers

  • Use Escrow or Letter of Credit (LC): For first-time orders, use secure payment methods.
  • Start with a Pilot Order: Test quality, communication, and delivery before scaling.
  • Engage Local Sourcing Agents: Partner with reputable firms like SourcifyChina for due diligence and oversight.
  • Maintain Dual Communication Channels: Use WeChat for daily updates and email for formal records.
  • Conduct Quarterly Performance Reviews: Monitor KPIs such as on-time delivery, defect rate, and responsiveness.

Conclusion

Verifying a custom manufacturer in China requires a systematic, evidence-based approach. Distinguishing factories from trading companies is not just about cost—it’s about control, quality, and long-term partnership viability. By following the steps and red flag checklist above, procurement managers can mitigate risk, ensure supply chain integrity, and achieve sustainable sourcing success in 2026 and beyond.
