Within 30 days, Langdi China sourcing identified a supplier that reduced the cost of one product by 60% and another 80%. In addition Langdi China sourcing in cooperation with the newly identified supplier redesigned the packaging to reduce freight cost by 50%.

Customer assessment: “We have tried ourselves but failed. The language, time zone
differences and ‘relationship factors' proved to be almost impossible challenges. Langdi China sourcing was able to find competitive sources for almost every product in just one month. It was the best $1200 I have ever spent.
