Qingdao Jiaobao New Materials Co., Ltd. Supplier Evaluation

Executive Summary

Qingdao Jiaobao New Materials Co., Ltd. is a China-based supplier located in Shandong, offering silicone sealant and glass glue products with low minimum order quantities ranging from 10 to 24 pieces. The company shows basic-to-moderate manufacturing capability, supported by a reported factory area of 5,700+ sqm, 30+ staff, and verified supplier status. Its platform profile includes 3 years as a Gold Supplier, Trade Assurance support, finished product inspection, warranty availability, and a response time of within 2 hours. Business activity appears moderate, with 70+ orders and CN¥202.8K+ transaction value over the past six months, but customer feedback volume remains limited at 10+ reviews with a 4.5 store rating. Delivery performance is a key concern, with an on-time delivery rate of 79.5%, below the preferred 80% threshold. Overall, this supplier may be suitable for small to medium buyers seeking low-MOQ silicone sealant sourcing, but delivery reliability and limited review depth should be monitored.

Detailed Analysis

1. Company Strength

Basis:
- Factory area: 5,700+ sqm
- Employees: 30+ staff
- Verified supplier: True
- Location: Shandong, China

Elaboration:
The supplier has a defined factory footprint and a small-to-medium workforce. A factory area above 5,700 sqm indicates a physical production base rather than a purely trading profile, while 30+ staff suggests limited but functional operational capacity. The verified supplier status adds credibility to the company’s existence and basic manufacturing setup.

Scoring Rationale:
The company does not appear to be a large-scale supplier based on the available employee count, but it has enough factory area and verification support to demonstrate baseline production capability. The data supports a small-to-medium factory profile rather than a large stable supply chain. There is insufficient data on annual output, production lines, equipment, or capacity utilization, so a higher score is not justified.

Final Score: 13/20

2. Platform & Compliance Credibility

Basis:
- Gold Supplier: True
- Gold Supplier history: 3 years
- Trade Assurance: True
- Verified supplier: True
- Certification/industry labels: Warranty available, Finished product inspection, Response time ≤2h, On-time delivery 79.5%

Elaboration:
The supplier has several core platform credibility indicators, including Gold Supplier status, Trade Assurance, and verified supplier status. The 3-year Gold Supplier history provides some platform continuity, though it is not long enough to indicate a deeply established long-term platform track record. The labels also include finished product inspection and warranty availability, which support basic compliance and buyer protection confidence.

Scoring Rationale:
The supplier has the key platform credibility components expected from a reasonably reliable vendor. However, the Gold Supplier duration is moderate rather than long, and there is no additional data on external third-party certifications, product compliance certifications, or industry-specific approvals. Therefore, the score fits the upper-middle range but should not reach the highest tier.

Final Score: 16/20

3. Business Performance

Basis:
- Past 6-month orders: 70+
- Past 6-month transaction value: CN¥202.8K+
- Store rating: 4.5
- Review count: 10+

Elaboration:
The supplier has demonstrated active recent transactions, with 70+ orders in six months. The transaction value of CN¥202.8K+ shows a measurable commercial track record, though it does not indicate very large-scale buyer adoption. The 4.5 rating is acceptable, but the review count of 10+ is relatively limited, reducing the strength of customer validation.

Scoring Rationale:
The order count and transaction value indicate stable but moderate business activity. The store rating is positive, but the small review base limits confidence in broad customer satisfaction. This supplier has enough transaction history to avoid being considered commercially unproven, but the available evidence does not support a high-performance classification.

Final Score: 14/20

4. Service Capability

Basis:
- Communication response time: ≤2h
- Platform label: Response time ≤2h
- Full Customization: Insufficient Data

Elaboration:
The supplier’s response time within 2 hours indicates acceptable communication efficiency, although it does not meet the strongest benchmark of response within 1 hour. There is no provided evidence confirming Full Customization capability, design support, OEM/ODM service, packaging customization, or dedicated project management.

Scoring Rationale:
The response speed is positive and suitable for standard sourcing communication. However, since customization capability is not provided, the supplier cannot be rated as having strong service capability. The score reflects good basic responsiveness but limited evidence of advanced service or customization support.

Final Score: 7/10

5. Delivery Performance

Basis:
- On-time delivery rate: 79.5%

Elaboration:
The supplier’s on-time delivery rate is 79.5%, which falls within the 70–79% scoring band. This indicates that delivery performance is below the preferred 80% threshold and may create scheduling risk for buyers with strict delivery windows or replenishment requirements.

Scoring Rationale:
Because the rate is very close to 80% but still below it, the supplier should not receive the 7–8 point range assigned to 80–89% performance. The result supports a mid-level delivery score, with a clear need for delivery performance improvement before the supplier can be considered dependable for time-sensitive procurement.

Final Score: 6/10

6. Quality & Customer Feedback

Basis:
- Store rating: 4.5
- Review count: 10+
- Finished product inspection: Listed
- Verified supplier: True
- Warranty available: Listed

Elaboration:
The supplier has a reasonable store rating of 4.5 and basic quality assurance indicators, including finished product inspection and warranty availability. Verified supplier status further supports baseline credibility. However, customer feedback volume is low, with only 10+ reviews, which limits the reliability of the rating as a broad quality signal.

Scoring Rationale:
The presence of finished product inspection and warranty availability is positive for quality control, and the store rating is generally acceptable. However, the limited review count prevents a strong customer feedback conclusion. There is also insufficient data on product test reports, defect rates, quality certifications, or inspection procedures. The score reflects moderate quality assurance with limited customer validation.

Final Score: 14/20

Total Score

Total Score: 70/100

Procurement Recommendation

Cooperation is conditionally recommended for small to medium buyers seeking silicone sealant or glass glue products with low MOQs and basic buyer protection. The supplier is more suitable for trial orders, price-sensitive procurement, and non-urgent replenishment needs rather than time-critical or high-volume programs.

Main risk points include the 79.5% on-time delivery rate, limited customer review volume, and insufficient data on customization capability, production capacity, external certifications, and detailed quality control systems. Buyers should confirm lead times, inspection standards, packaging requirements, and after-sales terms before placing larger orders.

Growth potential exists because the supplier has verified status, Trade Assurance, finished product inspection, moderate recent order activity, and a physical factory base. If delivery performance and review volume improve, the supplier could become a more reliable sourcing option for repeat procurement.
