Route planning
How to choose the right China sourcing hub.
Avoid too many cities
A crowded route weakens meeting quality. Build a route around supplier decisions, not city collecting.
Leave follow-up time
Reserve time for quote clarification, sample discussion, documents, and supplier comparison after meetings.
Confirm appointments first
Do not travel to a hub assuming supplier access. Confirm meetings, addresses, timing, and next steps before travel.
