I spent 10 years in China supply chain (Maersk + own trading business). What’s your biggest sourcing problem right now? — happy to answer questions for free
I’ve spent 10+ years in China supply chain — ran my own trading business exporting to China, then worked at Maersk coordinating LCL imports from China into Europe. I also sourced products directly in China, visited factories and negotiated in Mandarin.
I’m not here to sell anything. I’m genuinely trying to understand what problems importers and FBA sellers are dealing with right now — because I’m thinking about where I can actually add value.
So tell me: what’s your biggest China sourcing headache?
Bad suppliers? Quality issues after payment? Contracts that don’t hold up? Freight costs that don’t make sense?
I’ll answer every comment as best I can.
No pitch, just honest answers from someone who has been on the ground in China.
