Our Model

Design + Advisory — Not a Middleman

We are your retail design consultant and sourcing advisor. We don't sell products. We design your store refurbishment, optimize store layout, and connect you directly with cost-effective factory partners — so you pay factory prices, not retail markups.

🎯 What We Do

We design your retail space and provide a curated list of vetted suppliers for every piece of equipment you need — shelving, POS, lighting, refrigeration, ESL, and more. You contact them directly, you buy directly.

🚫 What We Don't Do

We do not buy or resell any products. We do not take commissions from factories. We are not a trading company. Our only income is your design fee and advisory service fee — period.

💡 Why This Matters to You

Because our advice is truly independent. We recommend suppliers based on quality and fit for your project — not based on who pays us the highest commission. You get factory-direct pricing and unbiased recommendations.

How We Charge — Transparent & Simple

Design Fee Project-based

Paid by you. Covers store layout, 3D visuals, and equipment specification.

Advisory Service Fee Fixed per project

Paid by you. Covers supplier matching, quotation consolidation, and negotiation support.

Factory Commission $0

We take zero commission from factories. Your suppliers are chosen for quality, not for kickbacks.

✅ The ChinaRetailDesign Advantage vs. Traditional Trading Companies

  • You buy directly from factories — no middleman markup
  • We recommend suppliers based on quality, not commissions
  • You own the supplier relationship for repeat orders
  • Transparent pricing: design fee + advisory fee only
  • We've personally visited every factory we recommend
  • We stay on your side — not the factory's side

About Us

A Designer-Led Integration Studio

Design first. Everything else, integrated.

ChinaRetailDesign was founded by a supermarket designer who believes a store's success is decided on the drawing board — layout, customer flow, lighting and equipment must work as one system.

In 2026, we led a delegation of major buyers on a firsthand tour of China's leading retail equipment factories — from smart POS to shelving, lighting, bakery machines and e-labels. That experience became our model: one design-led interface between overseas retailers and China's best factory network.

  • Design-led: efficiency & experience start from the blueprint
  • Factory-direct: vetted partners, transparent sourcing
  • One contract: single point of accountability end-to-end
