Shandong Jiudeng Industrial Co., Ltd. Supplier Evaluation

Executive Summary

Shandong Jiudeng Industrial Co., Ltd. is a China-based supplier located in Shandong Province, with a reported factory area of over 7,400 m² and more than 20 staff. The supplier is verified as a factory supplier and operates on as a 2-year Gold Supplier with Trade Assurance support. Its listed products are mainly folding, carbon steel, aluminum, telescopic, and multifunctional ladder-related items, with relatively low MOQs ranging from 2 to 100 pieces. Commercial performance is still limited, with 5 orders and CN¥135.2K+ transaction value over the past six months, supported by a 4.8 store rating but only 2 reviews. The supplier appears suitable for buyers seeking small-to-medium volume sourcing, trial orders, or customized ladder-related products. However, the low review count, short Gold Supplier history, and moderate on-time delivery rate suggest that procurement teams should conduct order-level quality checks and confirm delivery commitments before scaling cooperation.

Detailed Analysis

1. Company Strength

Basis
- Factory location: Shandong Province, China
- Factory area: 7,400+ m²
- Staff size: 20+ staff
- Verified factory supplier: True

Elaboration
The supplier has a declared factory area of over 7,400 m², which indicates a physical production base of meaningful size. However, the reported workforce of 20+ staff is relatively small compared with the factory area, suggesting that the available data supports classification as a small-to-medium production entity rather than a large-scale industrial manufacturer. The verified factory supplier status provides a positive signal that the company has some level of factory identity verification.

Scoring Rationale
The factory area is stronger than that of a very small workshop, and the presence of factory supplier verification improves confidence in its operational legitimacy. However, the limited staff size prevents the supplier from being assessed as a large-scale stable supply chain. Based strictly on the provided data, it fits best into the “small to mid-sized factory with basic production capability and verified factory status” range.

Final Score
14 / 20

2. Platform & Compliance Credibility

Basis
- Gold Supplier: True
- Gold Supplier duration: 2 years
- Trade Assurance: True
- Verified factory supplier: True
- Certification / industry tags: Warranty available, Finished product inspection, Full customization, ODM service available

Elaboration
The supplier has key platform credibility indicators, including Gold Supplier status and Trade Assurance support. The 2-year Gold Supplier duration demonstrates some platform operating history, although it is not long enough to be considered a long-term mature profile. The presence of factory verification and multiple service or compliance-related tags strengthens the supplier’s credibility on the platform.

Scoring Rationale
Core platform safeguards are present: Gold Supplier status, Trade Assurance, and verified factory supplier status. The certification and service labels are also relatively complete based on the provided data. The main limitation is the short Gold Supplier history of 2 years, which makes the supplier less established than long-tenured suppliers. Therefore, the score falls in the “core certifications complete but relatively short operating history” range.

Final Score
16 / 20

3. Business Performance

Basis
- Orders in past 6 months: 5
- Transaction value in past 6 months: CN¥135.2K+
- Store rating: 4.8
- Number of reviews: 2

Elaboration
The supplier shows some transactional activity, with 5 orders and over CN¥135.2K in transaction value during the past six months. The average commercial validation appears limited because the order count is low and the review base is very small. The store rating of 4.8 is positive, but with only 2 reviews, the rating has limited statistical reliability.

Scoring Rationale
The transaction amount indicates that actual orders have taken place, but the low number of orders and very limited review count weaken the supplier’s commercial validation. While the 4.8 rating is favorable, it cannot fully offset the limited market feedback. This places the supplier in the lower-to-mid business performance range, suitable for cautious trial cooperation rather than immediate large-scale procurement.

Final Score
12 / 20

4. Service Capability

Basis
- Communication response time: ≤8h
- Full customization: Listed as available
- ODM service: Listed as available

Elaboration
The supplier reports a response time within 8 hours, which is acceptable but not highly responsive compared with suppliers responding within 1 hour. The availability of Full Customization and ODM service indicates that the supplier can support some customized sourcing requirements based on the provided platform tags.

Scoring Rationale
The supplier has customization-related service capability, which is a positive factor for buyers needing modified products or ODM support. However, the response time does not meet the strongest service benchmark of one hour or less. Based on the available information, the supplier demonstrates normal service capacity with customization support, but not premium responsiveness.

Final Score
7 / 10

5. Delivery Performance

Basis
- On-time delivery rate: 83.3%

Elaboration
The on-time delivery rate of 83.3% falls within the 80%–89% band. This indicates moderate delivery reliability, but it also suggests that a meaningful portion of orders may not have shipped on time.

Scoring Rationale
According to the scoring rule, an on-time delivery rate between 80% and 89% corresponds to 7–8 points. Since 83.3% is closer to the lower-middle of this band, the supplier should not be treated as highly reliable for urgent or time-sensitive procurement without additional delivery controls.

Final Score
7 / 10

6. Quality & Customer Feedback

Basis
- Store rating: 4.8
- Number of reviews: 2
- Finished product inspection: Listed as available
- Factory verification: True

Elaboration
The store rating of 4.8 is positive and suggests customer satisfaction among the limited available feedback. However, the review count is only 2, which is insufficient for robust quality validation. The presence of Finished Product Inspection and factory verification provides a basic quality assurance framework, but the available customer feedback remains too limited to confirm consistent quality performance across larger order volumes.

Scoring Rationale
The supplier has useful quality-related indicators, including Finished Product Inspection and verified factory status. The high rating is favorable, but the very small review base limits confidence in long-term quality consistency. Therefore, the supplier is better assessed as having basic-to-good quality safeguards but insufficient market feedback for a higher score.

Final Score
14 / 20

Total Score

70 / 100

Procurement Recommendation

Cooperation is conditionally recommended for buyers seeking small-to-medium volume procurement, trial orders, or customized ladder-related products, especially where Trade Assurance and finished product inspection can be used as transaction safeguards.

This supplier is most suitable for: - Buyers requiring low MOQ ladder-related products - Importers or distributors testing new product lines - Customers needing customization or ODM support - Procurement teams willing to start with sample or pilot orders before scaling

Main risks: - Limited commercial validation, with only 5 orders in the past six months - Very low review count, with only 2 reviews - Moderate delivery reliability, with an 83.3% on-time delivery rate - Short Gold Supplier history of 2 years - Small staff size of 20+ staff, which may limit large-scale fulfillment capacity

Growth potential exists due to the verified factory status, 7,400+ m² factory area, Trade Assurance support, Finished Product Inspection, and customization-related service tags. However, larger procurement programs should require sample approval, pre-shipment inspection, confirmed production lead times, and staged order scaling.
