China Visit Support Overview
What is Factory Visit & Negotiation?
Factory visits verify what supplier emails cannot prove. LIFA supports preparation, site review, meeting coordination, interpretation, documentation, and post-visit recommendations.
Service Detail
What Is Included
A practical service workflow tailored to the buyer's product, order size, and risk level.
LIFA conducts the factory visit covering production line review, quality system check, raw material and component inspection, workforce capacity, and key equipment verification.
LIFA facilitates the supplier meeting — covering price negotiation, MOQ discussion, delivery terms, payment conditions, and any custom product or certification requirements.
After the visit, LIFA prepares a written report with photos documenting the factory condition, production capability, key risks identified, and a clear recommendation on proceeding.
