CHINA SUPPLIERS · GUANGZHOU RECEIVING
Every supplier.
A clear Guangzhou handover.
Coordinate China supplier deliveries to Guangzhou with a clear receiving reference, SKU list and domestic delivery record.
What is a China supplier handover to Guangzhou?
A China supplier handover connects each supplier delivery with the merchant’s Guangzhou receiving plan. Before dispatch, confirm goods acceptance and current receiving instructions, then provide supplier and purchase references, SKU and variant quantities, carton contents and the domestic delivery reference. On arrival, reconcile received quantities and agreed condition evidence against that brief. Record shortages separately from physical units held for review. The merchant approves supplier follow-up and the next storage, preparation or release instruction; supplier dispatch does not establish stock acceptance or permission to ship customer orders.
From supplier dispatch to received stock.
- 01
Confirm acceptance
Share the goods, quantities and handling requirements; obtain current receiving instructions.
- 02
Identify the supplier batch
Connect supplier, purchase reference, expected arrival and domestic carrier or tracking reference.
- 03
Reconcile the arrival
Compare carton and SKU counts with the expected delivery and record the agreed condition evidence.
- 04
Decide the next action
Approve storage, inspection, consolidation, preparation or supplier follow-up for the received balance.
Keep mixed cartons and separate arrivals identifiable.
| Delivery detail | Ask the supplier to provide | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Several SKUs in one carton | Carton contents by SKU, variant and quantity | Receiving can identify the balance without inferring from the outer label |
| Several cartons in one batch | Carton numbers and total count | A missing carton stays visible against that supplier delivery |
| Several supplier shipments | A distinct purchase and domestic delivery reference for each arrival | Short or late stock is traced to the relevant supplier |
| Goods needing review | The requested check and decision contact | Stock stays on hold until the review is resolved |
A supplier-facing instruction you can reuse.
Edit the details here, then copy the brief into your preferred chat.
When the delivery differs from the brief.
An unrecognized reference, damaged package, short quantity or unexpected SKU needs a receiving decision. Record the arrival quantity separately from the quantity approved for use or release. Keep affected stock held while the merchant confirms supplier follow-up, additional work or a stock adjustment, with the decision reference attached.
Domestic transfer, pickup coordination, carrier charges and special handling are confirmed in the scope for the supplier and goods.
Continue from receiving.
BEFORE YOUR FIRST BATCH
Clarify the supplier receiving plan.
Can goods from several Alibaba or 1688 suppliers be received and consolidated in Guangzhou?
Share each supplier, purchase reference, product and SKU list, expected quantities and domestic delivery details. We confirm goods acceptance and the current Guangzhou receiving instructions before suppliers dispatch. Keep separate arrivals and mixed cartons identifiable so the received balance can be reconciled. Then approve the storage, checks, consolidation and complete or partial shipment you need. Supplier purchasing authority, domestic transfers and any extra handling should be agreed in the scope.
