How to Verify Real Manufacturers
SourcifyChina B2B Sourcing Report 2026
Strategic Guide for Global Procurement Managers: Sourcing Doors from China
Executive Summary
Sourcing high-quality doors from China offers significant cost advantages and supply chain scalability. However, the complexity of the Chinese manufacturing landscape—particularly the prevalence of trading companies masquerading as factories—poses risks to quality, delivery, and compliance. This report outlines critical verification steps, methods to distinguish between genuine manufacturers and trading companies, and key red flags procurement managers must monitor to ensure sourcing integrity.
Critical Steps to Verify a Manufacturer for Sourcing Doors from China
| Step | Action | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Conduct Pre-Screening via Verified Platforms | Use B2B platforms like Alibaba (Gold Suppliers), Made-in-China, or Global Sources with third-party verification badges. Prioritize suppliers with ≥3 years of transaction history and verified business licenses. |
| 2 | Request and Validate Business License (Yingye Zhizhao) | Obtain a scanned copy of the supplier’s business license. Verify authenticity via the National Enterprise Credit Information Publicity System (http://www.gsxt.gov.cn). Confirm scope includes “manufacturing” of doors or building materials. |
| 3 | Request Factory Audit Reports | Require recent third-party audit reports (e.g., SGS, TÜV, Bureau Veritas). Focus on ISO 9001 (Quality), ISO 14001 (Environmental), and FSC/CARB compliance for wood doors. |
| 4 | Conduct Onsite or Remote Factory Audit | Schedule a video audit (via Zoom/Teams) with real-time walkthrough of production lines, raw material storage, and QC stations. For high-volume orders, commission an in-person audit via a local inspection agency. |
| 5 | Review Production Capacity & Lead Times | Request machine list, production line count, monthly output capacity, and current order book. Cross-check with staffing levels and facility size. |
| 6 | Evaluate R&D and Customization Capability | Assess design team, sample development process, and ability to meet technical specs (fire rating, sound insulation, structural integrity). |
| 7 | Test Sample Quality Rigorously | Order pre-production samples. Test for dimensions, material density, finish durability, hardware integration, and compliance with target market standards (e.g., ANSI/AWC, EN, AS/NZS). |
| 8 | Verify Export Experience | Request list of past export destinations, shipping documents (e.g., Bill of Lading), and experience with Incoterms (FOB, CIF, DDP). |
| 9 | Conduct Reference Checks | Contact 2–3 existing international clients. Inquire about on-time delivery rate, defect frequency, and after-sales responsiveness. |
| 10 | Establish Legal Safeguards | Sign a comprehensive contract with clear clauses on IP protection, quality benchmarks, penalties for non-compliance, and dispute resolution (preferably via international arbitration). |
How to Distinguish Between a Trading Company and a Factory
| Indicator | Genuine Factory | Trading Company |
|---|---|---|
| Business License Scope | Lists “production,” “manufacturing,” or “processing” of doors/building materials. | Lists “trading,” “distribution,” or “import/export” only. |
| Facility Ownership | Owns or leases a dedicated production site with machinery (e.g., CNC routers, sanding lines, spray booths). | No production equipment; office-only setup. |
| Workforce Structure | Employs in-house engineers, production supervisors, and QC staff. | Staff primarily consists of sales and logistics personnel. |
| Pricing Model | Provides cost breakdown by material, labor, and overhead. Lower MOQs possible. | Quotes flat prices; higher margins; MOQs often higher due to third-party sourcing. |
| Lead Times | Direct control over production scheduling; shorter and more predictable timelines. | Dependent on factory availability; longer and less flexible. |
| Customization Ability | Can modify molds, adjust designs, and offer OEM/ODM services. | Limited to catalog-based options; reliant on factory capabilities. |
| Factory Tour Evidence | Real-time video shows active machinery, raw material stock, and in-process goods. | Avoids factory tours or shows generic/unrelated facilities. |
💡 Pro Tip: Ask for machine purchase invoices or utility bills (electricity/water) to confirm operational scale.
Red Flags to Avoid When Sourcing Doors from China
| Red Flag | Risk Implication | Recommended Action |
|---|---|---|
| Unusually Low Pricing | Indicates substandard materials (e.g., MDF instead of solid wood), labor violations, or hidden costs. | Benchmark against market averages; request material certifications. |
| Refusal of Factory Audit (Onsite or Video) | High likelihood of being a trading company or operating under poor conditions. | Disqualify supplier unless compelling justification provided. |
| No Physical Address or Vague Location | May indicate shell company or fraud. | Use Google Earth or commission a local verification service. |
| Inconsistent Communication | Multiple contacts with conflicting information; poor English or delayed responses. | Signal of disorganization or lack of direct control. |
| Lack of Product-Specific Certifications | Risk of non-compliance with target market regulations (e.g., fire safety, formaldehyde emissions). | Require test reports from accredited labs (e.g., Intertek, SGS). |
| Pressure for Upfront Full Payment | Common in scams or financially unstable suppliers. | Insist on secure payment terms (e.g., 30% deposit, 70% against BL copy). |
| Generic or Stock Photos | Images not matching actual facility or products. | Request time-stamped photos/videos of current production. |
| No Experience with Your Target Market | May lack understanding of regulatory or aesthetic requirements. | Prioritize suppliers with proven export history to EU, US, or Australia. |
