Need help contacting a restaurant or explaining a request in Chinese? Ask Justin about visitor help. Business errands are also listed below. Availability, scope and a fixed quote are confirmed before you pay.
— Justin, Founder, NiceYiwu · based in Yiwu
Send a request first. These are enquiries, not confirmed bookings or an emergency service.
Share the restaurant, date, party size and language you need. Ask whether a local can call to check availability. A booking is confirmed only after the restaurant accepts; dietary claims require separate checks.
Request reservation helpExplain the situation at your hotel, restaurant or shop, and when you need help. Ask about a short call or message translation. Availability and a fee must be agreed first.
Request language helpBefore paying: agree the exact task, fee, any third-party costs, response window, delivery method and cancellation/refund terms in writing. Do not assume same-day availability. Restaurant bills and hotel charges are paid directly to the business.
Prices in US dollars; the yuan figure is at ¥7 to the dollar. Anything not on the list — ask, and you get a fixed quote before any work starts.
Is the factory real, and is it really theirs? I go to the address, walk the floor and film what is there.
Hand your card or catalogue to the booths that sell your product, and collect theirs back.
Find who sells your product in the International Trade City and what they ask for it.
Collect samples from several booths, check they match the photos, and ship them together.
Walk the market with me on a WhatsApp video call. You point, I ask the price and MOQ in Chinese.
A supplier only speaks Chinese, or stopped answering. I call or message them for you.
Explain your request, location and preferred date. For business errands, include the factory address, product photo or booth numbers.
I confirm the price and the day I will go. If it is outside Yiwu or bigger than the list, you get a quote first — no surprises afterwards.
The available payment method and final price are confirmed in WhatsApp before any payment. Couriers, printing and samples are passed on at cost with the receipt.
Live video if you want it. If the factory is not there or the booth has gone, that is the finding — you still get the report.
Photos, video, a written summary in English and a spreadsheet of contacts where relevant, on WhatsApp or by email.
This is a visit by a local, not a certified quality inspection. For pre-shipment AQL inspection use a third-party inspection company; I can tell you who buyers here use.
The scope, timing, payment method and refund terms below are proposed; confirm them with Justin in WhatsApp before paying.
Need ongoing sourcing, order follow-up and export shipping instead of single errands? Say so on WhatsApp — that is a different conversation with a different price.
Justin replies himself; agree availability and response time before relying on the service (Beijing time, UTC+8). English or Chinese; Arabic via translation.
Born and raised in Yiwu, Justin runs an export trading business here and has spent years hosting buyers from the Middle East — which is where the questions on this site come from. More about Justin.
No. On errands the fixed fee is the only money I make. I don’t accept payments from the factories or booths I visit for you, so there is no reason to make one look better than it is.
The payment method, final price and timing are agreed in WhatsApp before any payment. Couriers, printing and samples are charged at cost with the receipt.
Then that is what the report says, with the photos. You pay for the visit, not for a good result — which is exactly why the visit is worth doing before you send a deposit.
Yes. Jinhua, Yongkang, Dongyang and Pujiang are +$40 for the extra travel. Further away (Ningbo, Wenzhou, Shaoxing …) gets a fixed quote first.
Not on this page. These are single errands at a flat price. If you want someone to manage sourcing, orders and shipping on an ongoing basis, ask on WhatsApp and we discuss it separately.
Timing is agreed per task before payment. The business cards show indicative turnaround times, not guaranteed availability; holidays and market closures may affect them.
