The Essential 1688 Factory Audit: What We Verify

FlatFee Sourcing's Factory Reality Check is a lean, ground-level verification built for small and first-time 1688 buyers. We cut the corporate fluff to keep costs down and focus 100% on keeping your money safe:

  1. Real Gate, Real Sign

    Our local team physically visits the address. We take raw, un-staged photos of the main entrance, the actual factory sign, and the surrounding area. You'll know instantly if it's a real facility or just a virtual mailbox.
           

  2. Inside the Workshop (Machines & Workers)

    We walk straight onto the production floor. We capture the daily reality: active machines, workers on duty, and the overall setup. No polished showroom setups, just the factory on a normal, regular workday.

  3. Your Product on the Line

    We go directly to the department making your specific items. If you buy silicone molds, we check the molding shop. If you buy hoodies, we film the sewing lines. This is your bulletproof evidence that they actually manufacture your product, rather than buying it from somewhere else.

  4. Raw Photos & Video Clips (Zero Filters)

    You get the raw, unedited camera files directly from the field. No Photoshop, no cropping, and no filtering. We forward the raw evidence straight to your inbox so you can see the truth for yourself.
