Furniture Sourcing & Consolidation in China

Yes. Source Foshan can consolidate orders from suppliers selected by the client. Send the supplier list with contacts, what you ordered and the expected completion dates. Source Foshan coordinates each delivery to the Foshan consolidation warehouse, checks it against your purchase order and consolidates it with anything Source Foshan sourced for you. The fee for a consolidation-only project is quoted from the supplier list and packing lists rather than from order value.

Yes. Showroom stock and factory orders are received into the same consolidation warehouse, checked, relabelled with your item codes and rooms, and loaded as one shipment with one packing list. Showroom purchases are usually ready first and are stored until the factory-made pieces arrive.

No. Each supplier delivers to the consolidation warehouse on its own date. Early deliveries are received, checked and stored until the last supplier finishes. Source Foshan agrees one cut-off date with you and tracks every open order against it with weekly factory updates.

You are told as soon as the factory's date slips, not when the container is due. You then choose: hold the container for the late item, ship without it and send it later by LCL, or replace it from stock. Storage of the items already in the warehouse continues under the agreed terms.

Yes. Every delivery gets a quantity and visible-condition check against the order list on arrival. A full inspection against drawings, samples and the seven Source Foshan quality checkpoints, with a photo and video report, is available per item or per day and is standard on projects Source Foshan sourced.

The problem is photographed and sent to you the same day with a recommendation. You decide between rework at the factory, replacement, or acceptance with a discount. The item is held out of the load plan until you sign it off, and the master list shows its status as “Issue” or “Hold” until it is resolved.

Yes. Factory packaging made for domestic delivery is assessed on arrival and upgraded for sea freight where needed: corner guards, foam lining, moisture barriers and plywood crates for stone, glass, mirrors and lacquered pieces. Re-packing materials are charged at cost and listed on the packing list per carton.

As long as the project needs. A consolidation window is agreed at the start; the first weeks are usually included, and longer stays are charged per cubic metre per week and quoted up front. Upholstery is racked and never stacked under casegoods, and long-stay items are re-checked before loading.

As a rule of thumb, a full container becomes cheaper than LCL from about 15 m³ of packed furniture. A 20-foot container holds up to about 28 m³ and a 40-foot high-cube about 65–68 m³. The decision is made from the measured packed CBM after consolidation; the shipping page covers routes, terms and transit times.
