Why Footline Supply

Over 20 years of trusted relationships in China.

We have worked side by side with Chinese manufacturers for more than 20 years. Those relationships are what keep your orders right on quality, on time and on budget, so you are in good hands from the first quote to the day your goods arrive.

Manufacturers we know well

Our suppliers are factories we have worked with for over 20 years. We know who owns each one, what it makes best and how it performs under a deadline, so you always deal with the real maker.

Your sample sets the standard

The sample you approve is sealed and photographed. Production is checked against it during the run and again before shipping, and the balance is only paid once the goods pass.

Clear communication

We talk to the factory in Chinese and report to you in English, with photos and straight answers, so nothing gets lost between your team and the production floor.

On your side of the table

We negotiate with the factory on your behalf to get you the best price, so you stay competitive in your market. We work for you, not for the factories we buy from, and we build every order around a long-term relationship with you.

Orders followed day by day

We stay close to every order on the factory floor and tell you early if anything changes, so delivery dates hold and there are no surprises.

Delivered anywhere

Goods from several suppliers are checked, packed and shipped together with all export documents, by sea, air or rail, to your port or your door.

How our quality control works

Questions

Buying from China, answered.

More answers on our FAQ page, or ask us directly.

Do you make the products yourselves?

No. We are an independent sourcing company. We select the right manufacturer for each product from our audited network, so you get the best fit rather than one brand.

Which countries do you ship to?

We ship worldwide by sea, air and rail, on FOB, CIF or door-to-door terms, with export documents prepared by our team.

What payment terms do you accept?

Typically a deposit by T/T with the balance after inspection, or L/C for larger orders. Terms are agreed in writing before production starts.

How quickly will I get a quotation?

A sourcing specialist replies within 12 hours on working days. Larger projects, such as a full production line or a private-label shoe range, get a first response the same day and a detailed proposal after a short call.
