CHIFAT®
/ about / founder
Your man in China. I work personally — no middlemen.
/ origin story
Five steps from Russian e-commerce to on-the-ground procurement in China.
Started working with Chinese suppliers before it became mainstream.
Went through the full seller cycle: listings, returns, defects, customs.
Remote work with China hits a glass ceiling. Alibaba photos don't replace factory visits.
Moved to China physically. Shanghai as HQ, routes to Yiwu and Guangzhou.
Built a system from personal practice: 1688 search, factory visits, QC, consolidation, shipping, docs.
/ geography
I'm not "somewhere in China." I have three presence points with different roles.
Headquarters
Base, negotiations, documents, finance and legal.
Operations base
Product inspection, consolidation warehouse, commodity nomenclature.
Industrial south
Ceramics (Foshan factories), auto parts, industrial categories.
/ principles
What you get by default.
I work personally, not through middlemen or "agent networks."
I inspect factories on foot — photos, videos, checklists at every stage.
I don't promise what I can't deliver. No "guaranteed" margins or timelines.
Client sees every stage — from first request to shipment to Russia.
Tell me your task — I'll honestly say if CHIFAT® is the right fit.
