International sourcing · Lara Hu

China sourcing services, built around your requirements.

Lara Hu is an independent sourcing consultant based in Guangzhou, supporting overseas buyers with requirements assessment, manufacturer research and purchase coordination. Enquiries across product categories are welcome; scope is assessed individually.

What support can you request?

Requirements and manufacturer research

Start with a product description, image or link. We clarify specifications, quantity, destination and timing before agreeing research tasks. Supplier comparisons consider specification differences, supply scope, quotations and lead times.

Factory visits and product communication

Support can include visit scheduling, product discussions in business English and follow-up questions. A factory visit is distinct from an independent technical audit or laboratory test.

Order and shipping coordination

Where ongoing support is agreed, I follow up on order details, production progress and shipment arrangements with suppliers and freight partners. You review the options and make purchasing decisions.

How are scope and fees agreed?

Tasks, responsibilities, fees and expected deliverables are confirmed before work begins. Freight, specialist testing and inspections are discussed separately when needed. You can request one stage or broader support.

Which products can you enquire about?

My experience includes prefab housing, related building materials and home textiles. These are examples of experience rather than a fixed catalogue. Send other product requirements for assessment.
