Hello, I cannot offer much help to Tom or others who want to use US branded goods, but I can understand his comments on customs and language, and we all know there are other issues related to trade with Chinese factories and agents.
However, if you are thinking of sourcing offshore from China, but have concerns, worries or just questions, please drop me a line.
We are British managed, speak your language, well more or less :>) and can help you cut through many of the problems, we can "credit" check suppliers or agents and with family connections in the Rag Trade can maybe help with sourcing as well.
Dealing with China does not have to be a nightmare, there ARE many honest suppliers, you just need to be careful or do due diligence.
And the best part? It doesn't cost anything to ask us questions!
