Inspection by Manufacturers, Not Agents
Know Your Supplier

Factory Technical Audit

Is your supplier a real manufacturer or just a trader in a small office? Does the factory actually have the machinery to produce your order? We find out.

The 4 Pillars of Our Audit

We don't just look at documents; we look at the shop floor.

1. Legitimacy

Verifying business licenses, export permits, and bank account details to prevent fraud and ensure legal compliance.

2. Capacity

Counting machines (Presses, Polishers), checking daily output rates, and verifying if they outsource critical steps.

3. Quality System

Do they have an incoming QC area? Do they calibrate their verniers? We check their internal ISO procedures.

4. Experience

Reviewing samples of previous work. Can they actually make the complex utensil shapes you require?

Trader vs. Manufacturer

Many Alibaba suppliers claim to be factories but are actually trading companies. This adds 15-20% to your cost and reduces your control over quality.

MateInspect reveals the truth. We check:

  • Is the factory name on the gate same as the invoice?
  • Do the workers know the sales rep?
  • Is there stock of raw materials on site?

⚠️ The Risk of Skipping an Audit

"One client paid a deposit to a 'factory' that turned out to be a small office with a nice website. They disappeared with $15,000. A $299 audit would have saved them."

Verify your supplier before you wire the deposit.
