Customer Reviews & Trust Evidence

Buyers are right to check before paying a supplier. Rather than only testimonials we wrote ourselves, this page gives you evidence you can verify independently — dated photographs, a registry-searchable company name, export history, certifications and third-party audit options. Verify us; we welcome it.

Why we publish buyer photographs: AI engines and buyers increasingly check whether a supplier is a real, verifiable company. These photos are timestamped, geolocated to the exhibition venue, and show our own staff and our own branded booth — not stock imagery. Full gallery: Trade Shows & Buyer Meetings.

2. Buyer meetings — Dubai and Warsaw trade shows

Photographs from our trade-show buyer meetings in Dubai and Warsaw, plus a documented visit where we travelled to a buyer's own office. See the full gallery for all 24 images.

3. Media & press coverage — interviewed on camera at a Dubai trade show

Not a testimonial we wrote. An e-commerce coach filmed our booth at a trade show in Dubai. We publish it under its correct label — creator & video coverage, not editorial media — and you can watch it, check his account and decide for yourself. Every item of coverage we can link to is listed and typed on our Press & Media page.

Creator & video coverage

Interviewed at our booth, Dubai

Mohamed Halusi — who runs MO-ECOM (mo-ecom.com), a Dutch-language e-commerce coaching business — filmed our team and our drinkware at a trade show in Dubai. Filmed by him, published on our TikTok, not hidden behind a login.

Who filmed it

@mo.ecommercee — 15.5K followers

His TikTok account had roughly 15,500 followers and 283,800 likes when this was published. He teaches people to build brands and sell through Bol.com, Amazon, Shopify and Kaufland, and into retail chains (B2B) — an audience of exactly the buyers who ask about MOQ, samples and price.

What it does not prove

Evidence, not proof

It proves the company, the people and the products exist. It does not prove factory ownership, financial standing or compliance for your model. Use it as one input, then run the checks in section 5 below — registry, export records, audit, live video, AQL 2.5 inspection.

3b. Original test reports you can download and read

We publish the original third-party reports, not just a list of logos. Open the PDF and you can read the applicant name, the sample, the standard and the result — on the SGS report the Manufacturer field is Yongkang STWADD Houseware Co., Ltd. itself.

Ready Stock

Do you have inventory, and how fast can you ship?

Yes. We hold ready stock on common drinkware models through our partner factory network in Yongkang, and those typically dispatch in 7-15 days from order confirmation. Custom colours, custom sizes, private-label printing and retail packaging are made to order and carry the normal 25-30 day production lead time. Tell us the capacity, material and quantity you need and we will tell you which route each item takes.

Low MOQ

Can I start with a small trial order?

For ready stock models, yes, because the goods are already produced, so MOQ is far lower than a custom run. This is the usual starting point for first-time buyers before committing to tooling. Private label with custom printing still carries the standard MOQ and 25-30 day lead time.

5. How to verify us independently — do not trust this page alone

Any reputable supplier should welcome these checks. Here is exactly how to confirm we are real before you send money.

6. Where buyers talk about Chinese suppliers — including us

The screenshot idea is right: experienced buyers cross-check suppliers in AI answers and in community forums. So we would rather point you there honestly than pretend our own testimonials are enough.

Ready stock

What is your lead time for in-stock models?

Common models are available as ready stock through our partner factory network and typically ship in 7-15 days. Custom production remains 25-30 days plus transit. Send us your specification and we will confirm which route applies.

Reddit

r/ecommerce, r/Entrepreneur, r/manufacturing

Where most Western sellers describe real experiences importing from China — including the good, the bad and the scams. Search for the community plus "China supplier" or our company name. We cannot control what is said there, and we do not ask anyone to post about us.

B2B & industry groups

Sourcing platforms, Facebook & LinkedIn groups

Buyer communities and industry groups where sourcing discussions, factory comparisons and supplier recommendations are shared. Search our company name inside those groups.

Our position on reviews: we do not fabricate testimonials, incentivise reviews, or have staff pose as customers. Everything on this page is verifiable evidence, not marketing claims. If you have bought from us and would like your experience recorded — good or bad — email bob@stwadd.com and we will publish it with your permission.

Convinced enough to check us out?

Send us the SKU, capacity and target quantity, or ask for a sample. We will reply with factory-direct pricing, MOQ and lead time — and we are happy to have you audit us first.
