The Yangtze Delta moves more industrial freight than any region on Earth. For European and international manufacturers operating there, SXE Consulting optimizes the chains that link Chinese operations to global markets — inventory, S&OP, supplier performance.
European and international manufacturers in the Yangtze Delta face a double supply chain: local sourcing and production on one side, global distribution on the other — with lead times, quality variability and export logistics in between. Typical mission example: a European electronics manufacturer's Suzhou plant substantially cut finished-goods inventory while holding 96% service to its EU distribution centers, through S&OP redesign and supplier lead-time contracts. We serve Shanghai, Suzhou, Kunshan, Wuxi and Ningbo — in English, with Mandarin-speaking support available."
Local sourcing + global export: we optimize both sides and the interface between them — the classic pain point of China operations.
Audits, qualification, lead-time and quality contracts: your Chinese supplier base becomes a performance asset, not a risk.
