EUROPE ↔ CHINA · SOURCING & COMMERCIAL COORDINATION
We help European companies source from China, and Chinese and Hong Kong buyers find established European brands and manufacturers. Our work runs from a clear brief to a practical pilot order.

Source in EuropeScope of work
TE Advisory is not a licensed customs broker, freight carrier, inspection company, certification body or legal adviser. We coordinate logistics and customs-clearance arrangements through qualified partners appointed for the project. We do not guarantee clearance, delivery dates or regulatory approval.
End-to-end coordination
Depending on the engagement, TE Advisory can coordinate each stage below, while clearly separating our own work from work performed by third-party providers.
All freight, inspection, customs and regulatory services remain subject to separate quotations and the appointed provider's own terms.
Practical experience
Trinity Enterprises AB, which provides TE Advisory, also operates VyPack, a B2B packaging brand serving European business customers. Through VyPack, we work directly with European buyers while coordinating specifications, quotations and supplier communication with production partners in China. This gives our sourcing work a practical buyer-side perspective.

Scope
We focus primarily on lower-complexity, non-regulated sourcing assignments. Medical devices, pharmaceuticals, hazardous goods and other heavily regulated categories are outside our standard scope unless the required licensed specialists and responsible parties are appointed separately. None of these categories is risk-free or automatically compliant. Every project still requires feasibility, compliance and commercial review.
China → Europe coordination
For China-made consumer products, we can coordinate sample, packaging and commercial-document review with the relevant buyer and separately appointed specialists before a pilot order. Market access and regulatory acceptance are never guaranteed.
