Sodline is a team of young professionals settled in Shanghai - China's business hub. Our members are mostly with strong engineering background and experienced in various product lines or industrial sectors. We have established wide contacts with a factory network throughout China to help our western partners in the business activities of products sourcing, contract manufacturing and quality control.

We help our customers source the 'off-the-shelf' products and components from China as well as present good quality products to potential overseas customers from reliable Chinese manufacturers who have been working together with us for long years. We are flexible in minimum order quantities, payment methods and logistics (shipping) channels. We can also perform as customer's buying agent in China, helping them handle the procurement with their existing suppliers-mixed container, stock/warehouse management, etc. The products categories that our sourcing activities have been involved in are:

Hand-tools and hardware

Outdoors, camping and recreational

Automotive parts

Cosmetic packaging

Furniture (home and office) and accessories

House-hold and decorative items

We help western companies moving their production to China to lower the manufacturing cost while maintaining the due quality level. Our experienced team will be able to guide customers all the way through the manufacturing process, from initial quotation and sampling, through trial order and full production to the final shipping. Our associated workshops are capable of handling various materials, e. g.:

Metals ( CNC machining, casting and forging, extrusion, sheet fabrication)

Plastics ( injection molding, blow molding, vacuum forming, extrusion, Vinyl PVC )

Others ( wood, ceramics, glasses, etc. )

While integrating the quality control in the whole process of contract manufacturing and sourcing, we have split this section up as a separate service that we can provide to our customers. Our inspection team can carry out stringent pre-shipment or in-process inspection as per customer's instruction, preventing loss of money even before the defect products have the chance to sneak into the final package and goods departure the seaport. Or, sometime, simply having someone standing on-site on your behalf will make big difference!

Apart from these above core services, we also provide related supporting services:

Logistics and procurement management

Products design and development

Translations and interpretation

Exhibition tour accompany

Factory visits accompany and screening
