At present, Chinese economy is number 2 in the world and will recover from the crisis faster than others will, as predicted by experts. Thanks to the state policy stimulating cheap export, the majority of consumer goods, equipment and technical appliances, as well as products of various heavy industry branches now come to the Belarusian and world market from Chinese suppliers and manufacturers.

Working with the Chinese market has its own peculiarities that requires thorough and long studying. A subsidiary of AsstrA international logistics company group has been operateing in China since 2005. In addition to the main international forwarding activities, AsstrA employees have contributed quite a lot to the contract (project) logistics sphere in the course of these 4 years. Specifically, they managed to set up goods delivery schemes optimal in terms of delivery times and costs and to arrange the inspector network in 32 Chinese cities for checking product quality and performing company audits. 

Thanks to all that, AsstrA subsidiary in the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone now offers its partners and customers a new shipment control system, product quality inspection and company audit service in China. What are the advantages of working with AsstrA?

• Professional inspectors check any products from household appliances to chemical raw materials.
• Specialists have a possibility to conduct almost any kind of laboratory tests.
• The service price is a nice surprise: from 200 euro per inspection. 

“We keep on improving and developing new services. Our shipment control, product quality inspection and company audit service in China may be interesting for new as well as regular AsstrA customers working with Chinese suppliers and manufacturers. It is particularly relevant these days considering that Canton Fair, the largest export goods fair, will be held in Guanzhou until November 4.  We are sure that innovations will make services on consignment delivery from China still more attractive to our customers", says Oleg Kravchenko, Executive Manager of AsstrA subsidiary in Shenzhen.
