Sourcing services / Chenghai, China

One brief. A whole toy district on your side.

You bring the product idea, target cost and launch date. Our sourcing desk connects the pieces: the right item, the right packaging and a shipment you can actually plan around.

Send Your Sourcing List ↗

Our sourcing desk operates inside the Chenghai toy cluster, in Shantou, Guangdong - the densest toy manufacturing district in the world, where mold shops, injection lines, spray and pad printing, packaging and freight operators all sit within a few kilometres. We draw on hundreds of vetted source factories for slow-rising squishies and maltose squeeze toys, mochi-style squeezes, stress balls, fidget spinners and cubes, push-pop pop-it toys, sensory and novelty lines. Over more than twenty years of export trade the desk has coordinated thousands of shipments for buyers in 40-plus countries.

That supply base serves every toy-buying model we meet: Amazon and marketplace sellers who need labeled, carton-ready goods, Shopify and direct brands launching private label from small first runs, importers and distributors running recurring container programs, promotional-products companies ordering logo giveaways, capsule/gashapon vending and claw-machine arcade operators buying by prize tier, and party and gift buyers planning seasonal ranges. Whether the order is one mixed pallet or a full-container program, the same written six-step process applies.

Carton records and a consolidation workbench — Illustrative sourcing scene.

Send the idea. We will find the options.

A reference photo, a spreadsheet or a gap in your current range: start wherever you are. We turn your brief into a product shortlist across the Chenghai toy cluster, with photos, unit costs, case packs and the differences that matter. You get one conversation instead of a separate thread for every supplier.

You send: product references, quantities, market and target cost
We return: a comparable shortlist with SKU and packing details
You choose: the products worth sampling

One quote, with the work spelled out.

We bring the product and service costs into a quote you can actually compare. Product finding, private label packaging, sample collection, inspection and freight coordination have their own scope. We do not charge undisclosed commissions. You see the charges before you approve the work.

Many suppliers. One order plan.

Build a range from several factories without managing every handover yourself. We coordinate sample consolidation, supplier readiness and the shipment list. Every SKU keeps its own MOQ and case pack; we flag those constraints before they become a packing-day surprise.

Mixed cartons or retail sets quoted as additional packing work

Check the details before the cartons leave.

We organize the agreed sample review and inspection, including packaging and label checks when they are in scope. You receive the findings and the exceptions that need a decision. We coordinate the next action with the supplier before the shipment is released.

Approved sample and packing specification
Agreed inspection scope and photo records
Your release, rework or follow-up decision

Put freight on the same page.

We collect the finished carton counts, dimensions and weights, then coordinate the handover with your forwarder or a quoted freight option. Choose FOB, an available door-to-door route or your own logistics partner. The quote identifies the transport scope and who handles the remaining charges.

Make the next order easier.

Your approved specifications, artwork and packing decisions become the starting point for the next brief. We reconfirm availability, costs and changes before a reorder, so your small team can keep building the brand while we work through the sourcing details.

Before you brief us

A few useful answers.

Can you work from a sourcing spreadsheet?

Yes. Include links or reference photos, target quantity per SKU, target cost, packaging preference, selling market and required arrival date. Share a link in the inquiry form.

Is 120-600 pieces available on every SKU?

No. It is a starting range to discuss for eligible items and packaging projects. The catalog displays the recorded MOQ for each product; supplier case packs and print runs may require more.

How are sourcing fees disclosed?

We explain the charging basis in your project quote and separate the agreed service work from product, packaging and logistics costs. We do not charge undisclosed commissions. Any change to the quoted scope or charges needs your approval before the work proceeds.

Can you find products that are not in your catalog?

Yes. The catalog shows current stock references; the desk also matches reference photos, links and concepts to Chenghai factories beyond the published range. New searches return a shortlist with photos, unit costs and case packs before any commitment.

Do you handle promotional giveaways and vending-size toys?

Regularly. Promotional orders are planned around logo method, print minimums and event dates; capsule and claw programs are shortlisted by physical size, weight and attachment rules, because a prize that does not fit the machine fails at the door.

How large do orders need to be?

No fixed size. Eligible private-label projects start in the 120–600-piece range per SKU and commonly ship as consolidated LCL, while distributors run recurring full-container orders. Every SKU keeps its recorded MOQ; the desk shows that number next to the unit price.
