JS Sourcing is headquartered in Shanghai, but conduct operations mostly in the following provinces : Jiangsu, Anhui, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Hebei, Shandong; in order to keep a tight relationship with suppliers, conduct audits and quality inspections.
Does JS Sourcing hire freelance Sourcing Specialists?
We do not. A Sourcing Specialist has a pivotal role in the procurement and purchasing. But most of the heavy work is done by people under its command. Without a sourcing team, the skills of a Sourcing Specialist are wasted on daily order processing operations. Another shortcoming is the absolute lack of oversight on the practices of a freelance Sourcing Specialist. On the contrary, JS Sourcing reviews and assesses that its personnel follows strict and honorable business practices.
