I am a Portuguese professional in the industrial sector, based in Foshan, China, where I have lived and worked since 2004.

I didn't enter this industry as a simple "agent."

I began my career on the buyer's side, managing purchasing decisions for European companies. Later, I delved deeply into the Chinese industrial system, spending years on the supplier's side as an Export Director in Chinese factories.

This dual exposure is my greatest asset. I have sat on both sides of the table and know exactly where communication fails and where money is lost.

What 22 years in China have taught me:

Through hundreds of orders in the Construction Materials, Furniture, and Industrial Technology sectors, I have identified a recurring error pattern. International buyers lose control of the deal not because of supplier "dishonesty," but rather due to:

Blind Trust: Relying on digital profiles instead of in-person physical audits.

Late Intervention: Problems usually arise during the sampling and approval phase, not the shipping phase.

The Silence Trap: Assuming everything is going well just because the factory doesn't say otherwise.

I founded JB China Group to intervene precisely before these moments turn into real losses for your company.
