Who We Are
Tate’s Advisory Group is built on a unique advantage: an American product expert with 3+ years of hands-on experience in China working side by side with local Chinese communication and sourcing specialists.
By combining a clear understanding of Western business expectations with deep knowledge of Chinese business practices, we make sourcing and quality control efficient, transparent, and aligned with Western standards.
This year alone, we have successfully sourced 20+ product categories for Western clients—ranging from customized consumer goods to specialized industrial components. Beyond sourcing, we conduct regular factory and production inspections, meeting suppliers face-to-face every month to ensure compliance, quality, and long-term reliability.

This added level of commitment motivates suppliers to prioritize your orders, maintain higher service standards, and view your business as a long-term relationship rather than a one-time transaction.
Supplier Network
Established connections with vetted, reliable factories across multiple industries.
Risk Reduction
Spot quality issues early, prevent costly mistakes, and avoid unreliable suppliers.
