What does a sourcing agent in Kenya do?
A Kenya-based sourcing agent like Tinered finds suppliers in China on your behalf, negotiates prices, conducts quality inspections, handles shipping and customs clearance, and delivers goods to your door in Kenya. We save you time, money, and the risk of scams.

Is it safe to use a sourcing agent to import from China?

Can Tinered source products from Chinese manufacturers and suppliers?
Yes. Our China team can source products from Chinese manufacturers, factories, wholesale suppliers, and direct factory contacts. We handle all communication in Mandarin on your behalf.

Sourcing and quality check typically takes 3–7 days. Shipping via Fast Air takes a further 7–10 days. Total turnaround from enquiry to your doorstep in Nairobi is typically 10–17 days.
