Ningbo Dashuo Stationery Co., Ltd. Supplier Evaluation

Executive Summary

Ningbo Dashuo Stationery Co., Ltd. is a China-based supplier located in Zhejiang, with a reported factory area of 9,600+㎡ and 110+ staff. The supplier appears to focus on plastic pencil sharpener products, including electric, battery-operated, manual, cartoon, and safety pencil sharpener models under HUACHI-related listings. Its operational profile indicates a medium-sized manufacturing setup with verified supplier status and platform support, including Gold Supplier membership, Trade Assurance, Finished Product Inspection, ODM service, and Full Customization tags. However, its Gold Supplier history is only 1 year, and recent commercial performance is still limited, with 5 orders and CN¥4K+ transaction value in the past six months. Customer feedback data is weak, with 0 reviews and no available store rating. Overall, this supplier may be suitable for buyers seeking small-to-medium volume stationery sourcing, customization options, and verified platform protection, but buyers should conduct sample evaluation and quality confirmation before scaling orders.

Detailed Analysis

1. Company Strength

Basis
- Factory area: 9,600+㎡
- Employees: 110+ staff
- Verified supplier: True
- Location: Zhejiang, China

Elaboration
The supplier has a clearly stated factory scale, with a production site exceeding 9,600㎡ and more than 110 employees. This indicates a meaningful manufacturing base rather than a very small trading operation. The verified supplier status also supports the existence of a recognized supplier profile. However, the provided data does not include detailed annual production capacity, number of production lines, machinery, export volume, or factory audit report contents.

Scoring Rationale
The factory size and workforce suggest a medium-sized stable manufacturing operation with basic production capability and supplier verification. It does not reach the highest score range because there is insufficient data on actual output capacity, production automation, large-scale supply chain depth, or recognized factory certification details beyond verified supplier status.

Final Score
16 / 20

2. Platform & Compliance Credibility

Basis
- Gold Supplier: True
- Gold Supplier duration: 1 year
- Trade Assurance: True
- Certification / industry tags: Warranty available, Finished Product Inspection, ODM service available, Full customization

Elaboration
The supplier has several important platform credibility signals, including Gold Supplier membership and Trade Assurance support. The presence of Finished Product Inspection and warranty-related tags improves basic compliance and buyer protection visibility. Full Customization and ODM service tags also indicate platform-listed customization capability. However, the Gold Supplier duration is only 1 year, which limits long-term platform credibility.

Scoring Rationale
Core platform protections are present, including Gold Supplier and Trade Assurance, which support transactional reliability. The short Gold Supplier history prevents the supplier from being assessed as a long-established platform operator. Certification tags are useful but not equivalent to detailed third-party factory certifications unless further documentation is provided.

Final Score
15 / 20

3. Business Performance

Basis
- Orders in past 6 months: 5
- Transaction value in past 6 months: CN¥4K+
- Store rating: Insufficient Data
- Reviews: 0

Elaboration
The supplier has recorded some transaction activity over the past six months, but the order count and transaction value are both relatively low. The absence of store rating data and the presence of 0 reviews mean there is very limited customer-side validation available from the platform data provided.

Scoring Rationale
Commercial activity exists, but it is not strong enough to demonstrate high-volume market acceptance or mature transaction performance. With only 5 recent orders and CN¥4K+ transaction value, the supplier falls into a low commercial validation category. The lack of rating and review data further weakens the business performance assessment.

Final Score
10 / 20

4. Service Capability

Basis
- Response time: ≤2h
- Full Customization: Listed
- ODM service available: Listed

Elaboration
The supplier’s response time of within 2 hours is acceptable and indicates reasonably active communication. The platform tags also show Full Customization and ODM service availability, which are valuable for buyers requiring customized stationery products or private-label development. However, no data is provided on quotation speed, sample lead time, design support depth, or dedicated account management.

Scoring Rationale
The supplier demonstrates solid service capability through acceptable response time and customization-related tags. It does not reach the 9–10 range because the response time is not within 1 hour and the supporting data on customization execution capability is limited.

Final Score
8 / 10

5. Delivery Performance

Basis
- On-time delivery rate: 100.0%

Elaboration
The supplier reports a 100.0% on-time delivery rate, which is a strong delivery performance indicator. Based strictly on the provided data, this suggests that completed platform orders have been shipped on time. However, the total recent order volume is only 5 orders in the past six months, so the delivery record is positive but based on a limited transaction sample.

Scoring Rationale
According to the scoring standard, an on-time delivery rate above 90% qualifies for the 9–10 range. The supplier receives a high score due to the 100.0% rate, while a slight reservation is maintained because the order base is small.

Final Score
9 / 10

6. Quality & Customer Feedback

Basis
- Store rating: Insufficient Data
- Reviews: 0
- Finished Product Inspection: Listed
- Verified supplier: True

Elaboration
The supplier has quality-related platform support through the Finished Product Inspection tag and verified supplier status. These are positive indicators for basic quality control visibility. However, there are no customer reviews and no store rating provided, meaning there is no direct buyer feedback available to confirm product consistency, defect rate, after-sales performance, or customer satisfaction.

Scoring Rationale
The presence of Finished Product Inspection supports a basic quality assurance framework, but the absence of customer feedback significantly limits confidence. With 0 reviews and no store rating, quality cannot be strongly validated through market response. Therefore, the supplier should be considered as having basic quality safeguards but insufficient customer feedback evidence.

Final Score
12 / 20

Total Score

70 / 100

Procurement Recommendation

Cooperation is conditionally recommended for buyers seeking small-to-medium volume sourcing of plastic pencil sharpeners, especially where Trade Assurance, customization options, and verified supplier status are required. The supplier is more suitable for trial orders, sample-based qualification, and controlled-volume procurement rather than immediate large-scale purchasing.

Key risks include limited recent transaction volume, 0 customer reviews, missing store rating data, and short Gold Supplier history of only 1 year. Its growth potential lies in its medium-sized factory base, 100.0% reported on-time delivery rate, Finished Product Inspection tag, and available ODM / Full Customization services. Buyers should verify samples, request inspection documentation, and confirm production capacity before placing larger orders.
