What a China sourcing agent does for your brand

A China sourcing agent finds the right factories for your products, checks that they are real and capable, and manages them for you until the goods arrive. Fabusse does this for Gulf fashion brands from Guangzhou: we match you with vetted manufacturers, refine samples and technical packs, inspect production on the ground and organise shipping and customs clearance.

China sourcing agent: questions from Gulf brands

What we do, who we work with and how to start.

What does a China sourcing agent do?
A China sourcing agent finds and vets factories, manages samples and technical packs, checks quality during production and organises shipping. Fabusse does all of this for fashion brands in Kuwait and the GCC from our office in Guangzhou.
Why use a sourcing agent instead of going direct to factories?
An agent removes the language and cultural barriers that cause costly sampling and production errors, works with vetted factories instead of anonymous listings, and puts someone on the ground to check quality before your goods ship.
Do you work with small and first-time brands?
Yes. We work with fashion businesses of every size, from first-time founders to established retailers. Flexible minimum order quantities make a first collection possible.
Which products can you source in China?
Modest wear, luxury fashion, activewear, bridal, jewelry and accessories, bags and shoes, cosmetics and beauty, private label collections and more.
Do you ship to Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and the rest of the GCC?
Yes. We handle shipping and customs clearance from China to Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Bahrain and Oman.
