GUANGZHOU · CHINA SUPPLY CHAIN & 3PL
Keep stock recovery
close to your China suppliers.
Coordinate supplier returns, rework, replacement and stock disposition from Guangzhou. Plan destination customer returns separately for each accepted route.
A practical workflow.
China supplier stock recovery starts with affected goods already received in Guangzhou. Provide the supplier or purchase reference, affected SKUs and physical quantities, issue evidence and the supplier’s response. The merchant approves the return, rework, replacement or other disposition and its charges. The agreed records connect that instruction with units moved or reworked, replacement arrivals and the remaining held balance. Destination customer returns require a separately agreed route and the merchant’s appointed receiving operator.

Plan the detailed handover.
BEFORE YOUR NEXT STOCK RELEASE
Reconcile supplier recovery paths.
Can one affected supplier batch be split between return, repair and replacement?
Confirm the supplier accepts each proposed path and record the original SKU and quantity assigned to return, repair or replacement. Approve the receiving address, domestic movement, work and charges before dispatch. Keep units still in Guangzhou held, and record repaired or replacement arrivals separately against the same recovery reference. Check the actual received quantities and condition under the agreed inspection scope. The merchant approves accepted stock for restocking and the next decision for unresolved units.
