Running an eCommerce store on products made in China means the sourcing risk sits with you even when you never touch the stock — a bad supplier, an unchecked batch or a late shipment shows up as refunds and bad reviews on your store, not theirs.
Yinhan Sourcing is a Shenzhen-based dropshipping agent: sourcing plus fulfilment for eCommerce stores. We find and verify the supplier, check samples against your specification, inspect orders to AQL 2.5, hold and consolidate goods at our Shenzhen warehouse and ship door-to-door with customs help. On our Pro Plan, the service fee is $0.

Why eCommerce Stores Use a Dropshipping Agent in China
- A listing is not a verified supplier. The cheapest listing does not tell you whether the seller is the factory, whether it can make the product to your specification, or whether the goods will match the photos your store sells from. We verify suppliers in person before money is committed — see Supplier Verification & Factory Audit in China.
- Nobody is checking the goods for you. Without an inspection, a specification drift is only discovered by your customers. Our AQL 2.5 inspection happens before shipment, while it can still be fixed — full detail on our Quality Control & Inspection in China page.
- You would otherwise coordinate everything yourself. Factory, warehouse, inspection and shipping across time zones, in a second language. With an agent in Shenzhen, those steps sit with one team and one contact.
What a Dropshipping Agent Does
- Sources the product — factory-direct sourcing for the products your store sells, starting from your product link, photo or specification; if you buy from 1688 listings, see our 1688 Buying Agent page
- Verifies the supplier before you commit — business licence and production capability checked, in person where a visit is needed, not taken from a listing page
- Locks the specification with a sample — samples checked against what you asked for, so orders follow an approved sample, not a listing photo
- Follows the order and inspects it — production follow-up, then a formal AQL 2.5 inspection with photo and video evidence before shipment
- Holds, consolidates and ships — goods held at our Shenzhen warehouse and shipped door-to-door with customs help
If you are not dropshipping and instead order in bulk for your own stock, the same process is our general Product Sourcing Service in China. Selling on Amazon instead? See Sourcing Agent for Amazon Sellers.
How It Works — Step by Step
1. Send the product
Send a product link, photo or specification. Within 24 hours you receive a free supplier list and quotation you can compare against any price you already have. Low MOQ is welcome — many clients start with a small trial order before scaling.
2. Supplier verified, specification confirmed
We confirm the specification, quantity and packaging against your requirements, and verify the supplier before you commit.
3. Approve the sample
Samples are checked against your specification, so orders are made to an approved sample.
4. Order followed up
Your order is tracked through production / preparation, with photo and video updates, so a drift from the approved sample is caught early.
5. AQL 2.5 inspection before shipment
Orders are inspected to AQL 2.5 — workmanship, specification, function, quantity, packaging and labelling — with a photo and video report before shipment.
6. Warehousing and door-to-door delivery
Goods are held and consolidated at our Shenzhen warehouse — free warehousing for 3 months on the Pro Plan, 1 month on Basic — then shipped door-to-door with customs help.
Dropshipping Fees — The Published Plans, No Separate Dropshipping Fee
We do not publish a separate dropshipping or per-order fulfilment fee. Working through us runs on the same two published plans as every other service:
- Pro Plan — $0 service fee. We source from our verified suppliers; sourcing, production follow-up, AQL 2.5 inspection and 3 months free warehousing are included in the unit price you approve before production. The Pro Plan also includes our quality guarantee: free replacement or compensation if quality issues arise.
- Basic Plan — 5% of product value, minimum $100. You use your own suppliers; we conduct AQL 2.5 inspection at our warehouse and arrange door-to-door shipping. Includes 1 month free warehousing. The quality guarantee does not apply on Basic, because the suppliers are yours, not ours.

Dropshipping, Bulk Sourcing, or Amazon FBA — Which Route Fits?

- You order in bulk and hold your own stock → start with our Product Sourcing Service.
- You sell on Amazon → Sourcing Agent for Amazon Sellers, with FBA prep and labelling.
- Your main risk is the supplier itself → Supplier Verification & Factory Audit is the before-you-pay checkpoint, whichever route you take.
