Zhaochou was founded in 2026 in Yiwu, China — the world's largest small commodity market. Our founder speaks English, Somali and Mandarin Chinese, giving us a unique advantage when working with African importers.
With years of experience in Chinese manufacturing and international trade, our team understands both the China supply chain and the specific needs of African buyers. We are not just an agent — we are your business partner in China.
Typically 48 hours to find and verify suppliers. Production usually takes 15–45 days depending on the product and quantity.
We physically visit every factory before you pay. We check their business licence, production capacity and export history. If the factory is not legitimate, we move to the next option.
We use milestone-based payments — 30% deposit to start production, 70% balance only after you approve the quality inspection. We accept T/T, Wise, WeChat Pay, Alipay, EVC Plus, eDahab, Zaad and Premier Bank.
Yes. We arrange sea freight and air freight to Somalia, UAE, Kenya, Ethiopia and all other destinations. We also handle all export documentation.
If goods fail the inspection, we reject the batch and require the factory to fix the defects before payment is released. You always see the QC report before your money moves.
We communicate with clients in English and Somali. We negotiate with Chinese factories in Mandarin. Nothing is ever lost in translation.
Minimum order depends on the product. Many products in Yiwu start from just 50–100 pieces. We always negotiate the lowest possible MOQ for you.
No. We handle everything on the ground in Yiwu. You never need to visit — though you are always welcome to.
