Hi, my name is Chris.
Hi, my name is Chris.
I’m a Vietnam sourcing expert with 15+ years of experience in Ho Chi Minh City. I help Amazon sellers, influencers, start-ups and established brands find the right garment and clothing factory in Vietnam, and visit it in person if they want to.
I don’t own a factory, and I don’t manufacture your product. I introduce you to the factory that will. After 15 years here I know the factories personally: what each one does well, where each one struggles, and who will actually accept a small order. You deal with the factory directly, so you keep control of your product, your pricing and your supplier relationship. [I take no commission from factories. I get paid by you.]
My passion is teaching. If you already have experience, I skip the basics and introduce you straight to factories I know, with their strengths and weaknesses. If you’re new, I’ll explain how manufacturing works, from design all the way through to shipping.
What I can help you with?: finding OEM, ODM and private label factories, small-MOQ production, sample and pattern development, and fabric and trim sourcing. I can also arrange a factory tour so you can meet the teams, show your samples and talk price and MOQ face to face.
Questions I’ll ask you:
Do you have a tech pack?
Have you filled in a quantity breakdown list?
How will you control quality?
Do you want to work directly with a factory or through an agent?
When do you plan to visit Vietnam?

Vietnam is growing day by day, year by year.
What makes Vietnam so popular is the social-economic-political stability. During my 15+ years of living here I have seen the government make decisions that have led to the lower and middle class rise to a better and better standard of living year by year. Simply put, 90% of people who visit here for business leave with a feeling of wanting to return.
Are you searching for a better price? Have you heard that quality in Vietnam is very good? In my humble opinion, the reason to choose Vietnam over other countries is the nature of Vietnamese people. It is safe, the food is good, the people are nice and the government is pro-business.
