We manage the complete furniture package for overseas commercial projects — hotels, offices, aged-care and healthcare facilities, apartments and student accommodation — from sourcing to after-sales.
We are a sourcing agent, 100% on your side. We do not manufacture, run a showroom or sell a range. You deal with us, and we carry the responsibility.
Loose furniture and fixed joinery, made to your drawings and specification.
Casegoods, beds and headboards, seating and fixed joinery for the guestroom, made to your drawings and brand specification.
Lobby, lounge, bar and restaurant seating and tables, upholstered in the fabrics you specify.
Workstations, task and meeting chairs, meeting tables and storage, from factories holding the test reports your market asks for.
Resident-room, lounge and dining furniture for aged-care and healthcare operators and their distributors.
Repeat room packages for apartments and student accommodation, flat-pack or assembled as your site needs.
Pool-deck, terrace and restaurant outdoor furniture for resorts and hospitality venues.
Reception desks, bar counters, guestroom wardrobes, vanities, banquettes and wall panelling built to your drawings.
01
We collect quotations from the factories that run the production line for each product, compare them, and quote you like-for-like against your specification.
02
For large orders, samples are couriered to you for approval before production.
03
Once your selection is final we issue a proforma invoice. You pay the deposit stated on it to the FBM Sourcing Limited company account.
04
For custom pieces the factory prepares shop drawings and material lists, and you sign off drawings, fabrics and finishes before production.
05
When production is finished, our own QC team inspects the goods before shipment and sends you a report with photos and video.
06
After the balance is paid we load full containers, ship, and send a loading report. Products we source carry the warranty period stated on the PI.
Most of what is sold as “factory direct” in China is sold by traders, and every layer is paid for by you. We buy from the factory that runs the production line for your product. Furniture manufacturing is highly specialised: seating, casegoods, upholstery, metal frames and fixed joinery come from different factories, and we use each one only for what its line actually makes.
Our main markets are North America and Australia, where contract furniture is specified against local standards, so the first step in choosing a factory is checking that it holds the test reports or certifications for that specific product — confirmed before we quote.
We contract with the factory in our own name, and that contract is what protects you: how non-conforming goods are handled, penalties for late delivery, warranty terms — all enforceable under Chinese law. All quotations, invoices and shipping documents are issued by FBM Sourcing.
Before shipment, our own QC team checks quantities, dimensions, finish, fabric and foam, hardware and packing against the signed-off specification, and you receive a QC report with photos and video. If any products fail to meet the agreed standards, they go back for rework and re-inspection until all goods pass.
And you always know which applies.
| Products we source | Suppliers you nominate | |
|---|---|---|
| Who finds the supplier | We do — the factory that runs the production line for your product. | You do — including products you select and price yourself at a showroom or market with us. |
| What you pay us | One firm price per item. Sea freight is quoted before shipment. | A 5% commission. The supplier's charge for delivering the goods from its premises to the loading point is added at cost. |
| What's included | Sourcing, drawings, quality control, consolidation, loading and after-sales — all inside the price. | Specification and PI check, drawing coordination, production follow-up, quality control, consolidation into full containers, loading and export documents. |
| After-sales | Warranty period stated on the PI. Within warranty we replace free of charge (supplied ex-works China, you pay the freight) or compensate. | Not included: claims fall under the supplier's own warranty, and we can help you coordinate. |
| Contact with the supplier | All communication runs through us; factory names, contacts and quotations stay with us. | They are your relationships; during the order, communication runs through us. |
| Documents and payment | Both ways: all quotations, invoices and shipping documents are issued by FBM Sourcing, and you pay only the FBM Sourcing Limited company account named on the PI. | |
What the quotation shows. Per line: item, specification, materials, fabric and finish, dimensions, unit price, quantity, packing and lead time — like-for-like against your spec, any substitution flagged.
