Foshan furniture Sourcing Tour
If you’re sourcing dining tables and chairs from China, Foshan is one of the most efficient places to visit—but only if you have a plan. Lecong has an overwhelming number of showrooms, and Longjiang has countless factories. The difference between a smooth sourcing trip and a stressful one is simple: route + supplier filtering + on-site checks.
I run a practical sourcing day trip that starts with airport pick-up at Guangzhou Baiyun Airport, then takes you through Lecong (showrooms) and Longjiang (factory visits) so you can confirm style, pricing, production capability, QC, and export packing in one go.
Why Foshan is worth visiting (and why “showroom only” is risky)
Many overseas buyers can find dining sets online, but the real problems usually happen after ordering: material substitutions, inconsistent batches, unstable chair frames, weak tabletop edge finishing, and export packing that doesn’t survive the sea journey.
A structured Foshan trip solves this by doing two things:
- Lecong for fast comparison (styles + price range)
- Longjiang for the truth (materials, structure, production, QC, packing)
Lecong vs Longjiang: Which route fits your dining table & chair project?
Lecong (showrooms)
Best for:
- comparing many dining table/chair styles quickly
- confirming your price range and finish direction
- collecting supplier quotes and lead-time info
Lecong is huge—trying to “walk everything” is unrealistic. Many guides recommend planning your route carefully before you go Source.
Longjiang (factories)
Best for:
- verifying production capability and consistency
- checking chair structure (welding / joints / hardware)
- confirming tabletop materials (solid wood / veneer / sintered stone)
- reviewing QC checkpoints and export packing
My 1-Day Foshan Dining Set Sourcing Itinerary (easy, but efficient)
Morning: Lecong showroom run (style + pricing)
You’ll see enough dining tables/chairs to quickly lock in:
- your preferred style direction (modern / contemporary / “Italian minimal”, etc.)
- table top material and finish
- chair comfort + upholstery options
- target price band
Afternoon: Longjiang factory visits (materials + structure + QC + packing)
We focus on reality checks:
- tabletop edge details & finishing (chips, seams, corner protection needs)
- chair stability & structure (no wobble, strong joints/welds)
- production workflow & QC points
- export packing (corner protectors, foam, carton strength, stacking)
Evening: shortlist + quotation alignment
We align supplier offers on the items that matter most: MOQ, lead time, payment terms, packing standard, and inspection plan.
What I provide (so you can focus on choosing, not chasing)
I offer a full set of services for overseas buyers:
1) Pick-up & transportation (Guangzhou Baiyun Airport → Foshan)
You’ll be picked up at Guangzhou Baiyun Airport, then we run the day plan with a driver so you don’t waste energy on logistics.
2) Translation & communication (English–Chinese)
Clear communication on: materials, dimensions, finishes, MOQ, lead time, packing, payment schedule, and after-sales.
3) Negotiation support (price is not everything)
I help you negotiate the terms that protect you: lead time, sample confirmation, material confirmation, packing requirements, and payment milestones.
4) Inspection coordination (before shipping)
Quality control isn’t optional when importing furniture. A practical QC plan often includes inspections at different stages (pre-production, during production, final inspection, and container loading supervision) Source.
5) Logistics coordination (export packing + shipping handover)
I can coordinate packing requirements, shipping marks, consolidation/forwarder handover, and export-ready documentation alignment—so your dining sets arrive safely.
A real example (typical 1-day result)
A common pattern for dining tables & chairs:
- Morning: we view many showroom options and narrow the direction fast
- Afternoon: we visit a few factories to check structure, finishes, and packing
- Result: you leave Foshan with a clear shortlist, matched to your style and budget, with a plan for sample/inspection/shipping
