Market Intelligence

With Shanghai Freemen, you can rest assured that we have our fingers on the pulse of the ingredient market at all times.

Our headquarters in Shanghai means we’re only a couple hours away at most from all our manufacturing partners. We know first-hand how our products are being made. This gives you cutting-edge, transparent market intelligence that our competitors simply can’t provide.

Here’s how you benefit from our unparalleled market insight.

Market Monitoring

Customers say what they love the most about working with us is our spot-on market reports. Being right in China, we often know about material limitations or price increases before they happen. We pass on that totally transparent information to you in our monthly market reports, helping you make informed decisions that can save you hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Close Relationships

Although times are changing, many factories in China still operate under the traditional Chinese business style. This causes cultural and language barriers for many European and North American distributors. But not us. Our Shanghai headquarters has allowed us to forge personal, long-standing relationships with all our manufacturers.

Factory Audits and Tours

Another benefit of being headquartered in China is our ability to conduct regular facility and product Quality Assurance audits. We can also schedule factory tours for our customers, who sometimes want to see for themselves how their products are made. If you’re interested in a visit, please let us know and we’ll be happy to accompany you.
