Common problems

What buyers deal with, and how we handle it.

You found a supplier on Alibaba or 1688 and can't tell if they're a real factory.

We visit and check. Licenses, registration, the building itself. We report what we find.

You have to wire money to an account you can't verify.

You can pay Kezan instead. We're a registered company. We pay the factory and give you one invoice with a full paper trail.

Problems show up only after the container arrives.

We inspect before shipping. We open the boxes and compare the goods to your order, while there's still time to fix it.

The factory misses ship dates and you pay for air freight.

We track deadlines at the factory. We flag delays early so you hit the ocean cutoff.

Packing and labelling come out wrong, and retailers fine you.

We check your specs at the factory. Cartons, labels, inserts. Verified before anything is sealed.

Sourcing agents just pass messages back and forth.

We go in person. We visit the factory and deal with problems on site. You keep your suppliers and your prices.

You need someone in China you can trust.That's what we do.

Ongoing factory management

We manage your existing factories.

If you place repeat orders, we handle the factory side for you: follow-ups, deadlines, packing rules, quality checks. A monthly fee. You keep your suppliers.

Production follow-ups

We check in with your factories every week and send you one clear update.

Timeline checks

We track every order against the ship date and flag delays early, so you ship by ocean instead of paying for air.

Packing and labelling checks

Retailer packing rules, carton markings, labels, inserts. We check them at the factory against your spec.

Quality checks during production

We inspect during production and before shipping, with photos and video.

Your suppliers stay yours. Your prices, your contracts, your payment terms. We work at the factory on your behalf.

What makes us different

We go there. And we film it.

Most sourcing agents work from a desk and forward you the same stock photos the factory sent them. We show up in person and shoot real video: your product, your materials, the actual production line, filmed on the factory floor. Not a staged catalog. The real thing, so you can see exactly what you're paying for.

How it works

Simple for you.

01

Tell us what you need

Send us your product, or the supplier you’re already talking to: an Alibaba listing, a 1688 link, or a contact. We take it from there.

02

We check the supplier

We confirm they’re real and visit the factory in person, so you know exactly who you’re paying.

03

We inspect before it ships

We check your order against your spec, with photos and video, while problems can still be fixed.

04

We ship it to you

If you pay through Kezan, we also handle export and delivery: a freight company we trust does the shipping, we take care of the papers.

One-off

Verify & inspect

You keep paying the factory directly. We check the supplier and inspect your order before shipping. You pay us a service fee per job.

Ongoing

We manage your factories

For repeat orders. Weekly follow-ups, deadline tracking, packing and labelling checks, inspection on every order. A monthly fee. Your suppliers and prices stay yours.

Full service

You pay Kezan

Pay Kezan instead of the factory. We pay the supplier, export under our own company name, and ship to your door. One invoice, full paper trail. This also works for 1688 sellers who only take Chinese payments.

Hi, I'm Nataliya

Who you'll work with

“I'm in Guangzhou. I visit the factories myself and tell you what I see.”

I'm Nataliya, and I run Kezan. Ten years as an engineer taught me to check the details: specs, materials, labels, box counts. You deal with me directly, not a call centre, and I keep you updated at every step. I visit the factories myself, with trusted partners in Guangzhou.

Based in Tianhe, Guangzhou
