We're always open to exploring new sourcing requests.
A familiar starting point?
Finding suppliers is easy. Finding the right ones? Not always.
You’ve probably seen hundreds of suppliers on Alibaba or other sourcing platforms. But which ones are worth contacting?
Are the prices reasonable? Is it a manufacturer or a trading business? Can they handle your requirements?
Sometimes, finding a supplier is only the beginning. That’s where we come in.
We help you do the research, ask the questions, and handle the back-and-forth.
Too many supplier options
Unclear pricing and MOQs
Time-consuming communication

Meet the founder
Hi, I’m Ziying.
Before starting ZY Ventures, I worked in procurement and supply chain operations for manufacturing companies in the United States. Now I’m based in Shenzhen, helping overseas buyers navigate suppliers, packaging, and purchasing.
Not every business needs a large sourcing company. Sometimes, you just need someone local to help you figure things out and move forward. That’s what I’m here to do.
