Sha Yu Sports (Dongguan) Co., Ltd. Supplier Evaluation

Executive Summary

Sha Yu Sports (Dongguan) Co., Ltd. is a China-based supplier located in Guangdong, with a reported factory area of 850+㎡ and 20+ staff. Based on the available data, the company appears to be a small-scale apparel supplier with verified supplier status, Gold Supplier membership for 2 years, Trade Assurance support, and several platform-listed capability tags including 3D design capabilities, warranty availability, finished product inspection, and ODM service availability. Its product listings show low minimum order quantities of 2 pieces across women’s sports, yoga, fitness, and apparel-related items, which may suit buyers requiring flexible trial orders or small-batch purchasing. Business activity is moderate, with 200+ orders and CN¥811.3K+ transaction value in the past six months. The supplier demonstrates strong delivery performance with a 97.6% on-time shipment rate and fast response time of ≤1 hour. Key limitations include relatively small factory scale, limited review volume, a moderate store rating of 4.3, and insufficient data on full customization capability.

Detailed Analysis

1. Company Strength — Final Score: 12 / 20

Basis

• Company name: Sha Yu Sports (Dongguan) Co., Ltd.
• Location: Guangdong, China
• Factory area: 850+㎡
• Employees: 20+ staff
• Verified supplier: True

Elaboration

The supplier operates from a factory area of 850+㎡ with more than 20 staff members. This indicates a relatively small manufacturing setup rather than a large-scale industrial production base. The presence of verified supplier status provides some credibility regarding company existence and basic operational legitimacy. However, the available data does not include detailed production line numbers, monthly output capacity, machinery lists, audit reports, or internationally recognized factory certifications.

Scoring Rationale

The company has a physical factory footprint and employee base, but both are limited in scale. The verified supplier status supports basic reliability, yet the factory size and workforce suggest that production capacity is more suitable for small to medium order volumes rather than high-volume, complex, or urgent supply programs. Since there is no further evidence of large-scale production capability or advanced factory certification, the score should remain within the “small but basic production capability” range.

Final Score

12 / 20

2. Platform & Compliance Credibility — Final Score: 16 / 20

Basis

• Gold Supplier: True
• Gold Supplier tenure: 2 years
• Trade Assurance: True
• Verified supplier: True
• Certification / industry tags:
• 3D design capabilities
• Warranty available
• Finished product inspection
• ODM service available

Elaboration

The supplier has an Gold Supplier profile with 2 years of membership and supports Trade Assurance, which improves transaction protection for buyers. Verified supplier status further strengthens platform-level credibility. The listed capability tags are relatively complete for a small supplier, especially the inclusion of finished product inspection and ODM service availability. However, the Gold Supplier tenure is still relatively short, and no additional third-party compliance certifications or factory audit details are provided in the data.

Scoring Rationale

The supplier has core platform credibility elements: Gold Supplier status, Trade Assurance, verified supplier status, and several capability tags. These factors support a reasonable level of buyer confidence. However, the 2-year Gold Supplier history is not long enough to qualify as a highly established long-term platform supplier, and the data does not show deeper compliance documentation beyond platform-level indicators. Therefore, the score fits the range of “core certifications complete but relatively short tenure.”

Final Score

16 / 20

3. Business Performance — Final Score: 15 / 20

Basis

• Orders in the past 6 months: 200+
• Transaction value in the past 6 months: CN¥811.3K+
• Store rating: 4.3
• Number of reviews: 30+

Elaboration

The supplier has recorded more than 200 orders and over CN¥811.3K in transaction value during the past six months. This shows active commercial performance and confirms that the supplier has recent transaction history on the platform. The order count is meaningful for a smaller supplier, while the transaction value suggests stable but not exceptionally large-scale business activity. The store rating of 4.3 is acceptable but not outstanding, and the review count of 30+ provides some customer feedback but is still limited compared with suppliers that have extensive review histories.

Scoring Rationale

The business data demonstrates real recent buyer activity and a moderate level of transaction volume. However, the store rating is not high enough to indicate top-tier customer satisfaction, and the number of reviews remains relatively modest. The supplier is commercially validated, but the available figures do not support a classification as a high-volume or highly rated marketplace performer. A mid-range score is appropriate.

Final Score

15 / 20

4. Service Capability — Final Score: 8 / 10

Basis

• Response time: ≤1 hour
• ODM service available: Yes, based on platform tag
• Full Customization: Insufficient Data

Elaboration

The supplier shows a strong response time of ≤1 hour, which is positive for buyer communication, inquiry handling, and order follow-up. The platform tag indicates ODM service availability, suggesting some level of product development or design adaptation capability. However, the provided data does not explicitly confirm Full Customization support, including private label, custom fabric, custom sizing, packaging customization, or buyer-specific design development.

Scoring Rationale

Fast response time is a strong service indicator and supports efficient buyer communication. ODM availability further improves the supplier’s service profile. However, because Full Customization is not clearly confirmed in the provided data, the supplier cannot be rated at the highest service level. The service capability appears good, but not fully proven as advanced customization support.

Final Score

8 / 10

5. Delivery Performance — Final Score: 10 / 10

Basis

• On-time shipment rate: 97.6%

Elaboration

The supplier’s on-time shipment rate is 97.6%, which is well above the 90% benchmark for strong delivery performance. This indicates that, based on available platform data, the supplier has a strong record of dispatching orders within expected timelines.

Scoring Rationale

A 97.6% on-time shipment rate falls clearly into the highest scoring band. For procurement purposes, this is one of the supplier’s strongest measurable advantages, especially for buyers who prioritize predictable shipment execution. No negative delivery indicators are provided in the data.

Final Score

10 / 10

6. Quality & Customer Feedback — Final Score: 16 / 20

Basis

• Store rating: 4.3
• Reviews: 30+
• Finished product inspection: Yes, based on platform tag
• Verified supplier: True
• Factory Verification: Verified supplier status is provided; detailed factory verification report is not provided

Elaboration

The supplier has a store rating of 4.3 with more than 30 reviews. This provides a basic customer feedback base, though the rating is moderate rather than excellent and the review volume is not large. The presence of finished product inspection is a positive quality-control indicator. Verified supplier status also adds credibility, but the data does not include detailed inspection procedures, defect rates, quality certificates, sample approval processes, or third-party audit reports.

Scoring Rationale

The supplier has basic quality assurance support through finished product inspection and platform verification. Customer feedback exists, but the score of 4.3 suggests that satisfaction may be acceptable rather than top-performing. The limited number of reviews also reduces the statistical strength of the feedback. Therefore, the supplier deserves a good but not premium quality score.

Final Score

16 / 20

Procurement Recommendation

Recommendation: Conditional cooperation is recommended.

Sha Yu Sports (Dongguan) Co., Ltd. is suitable for buyers looking for low-MOQ women’s apparel, sportswear, yoga, and fitness-related products, especially for sample testing, small-batch purchasing, online retail trials, and flexible order programs. The supplier’s main strengths are fast response time, strong on-time shipment performance, Trade Assurance support, verified supplier status, and recent transaction activity.

However, buyers should manage several risks before scaling orders. The factory scale is relatively small, with 850+㎡ and 20+ staff, which may limit capacity for larger or more complex orders. The store rating of 4.3 and 30+ reviews provide only moderate customer feedback validation. Full customization capability is not confirmed, and detailed factory audit reports, production capacity data, and quality system documentation are not provided.

The supplier has growth potential as a responsive, small-to-medium apparel supplier with platform credibility and stable recent sales activity. For procurement, it is advisable to begin with sample orders or controlled trial orders, verify product quality through inspection, and confirm customization, lead time, and production capacity before placing larger-volume orders.
