"Orbit firmly believes the best solution for the UK today is to have lower-cost sub assembly components manufactured and supplied from China but retain the flexibility of final assembly within the uk."
There are many misconceptions and myths surrounding buying and dealing with China. Some, as many companies and buyers have found to their cost, are true. But with over two decades experience dealing with China, Orbit Distribution can alleviate these fears by offering full UK accountability whilst harnessing the true cost saving potential of China for your business.

 - Its is difficult to deal with China
NOT TRUE - Orbit will do it for you. With offices in mainland China. Our engineering and management personnel understand local customs, government and local traditions...The Chinese are masters at negotiation. This is exactly why we utilise this skill on your behalf. We ask our chinese staff to negotiate with local factories . This way you will get the best available deal. |
 - Chinese manufacturers require large quantities
NOT TRUE - Through Orbits consolidation procedures, much smaller quantities become achievable
|
 - I will have the risk of paying cash up front
NOT TRUE- Orbit is a British company. We give you a British point of contact, a British stocking point and more importantly, British Terms and Conditions.

 - The quality will be low
NOT TRUE - But this is the single biggest dilemma faced by inexperienced companies.
Some Chinese manufacturers will reduce test levels without notice in a bid to improve their own profit, this adds risk of poor quality arriving on your doorstep 6 weeks later, which then becomes your problem.
Orbit eliminates these worries... Using "manufacturing specification" agreements, we guarantee that manufacturing standards, test, quality control procedures and pipeline flow are all part of our solution to you.
Our mainland China personnel constantly monitor production and test methods to ensure they meet our agreed UK "manufacturing specification". We also carry out our own UK inspections during our frequent visits to China. |
 - They will steal our designs
NOT TRUE - Orbit will only appoint manufacturing companies we have personally checked and verified.
Generally, the factories we deal with are long standing suppliers.
