Yantai Surhoo Digital Technology Co., Ltd. Supplier Evaluation

Executive Summary

Yantai Surhoo Digital Technology Co., Ltd. is a China-based supplier located in Shandong, with a reported factory area of 45,000+㎡ and 140+ staff. Based on the provided data, the company presents a relatively solid production foundation, supported by verified supplier status, Trade Assurance, Finished Product Inspection, ODM service availability, and Full Customization capability. Its listed products are mainly related to water-based pigment printing, digital transfer ink, eco-friendly ink products, and DTG printer-related supplies.

However, its platform track record is still limited: Gold Supplier tenure is only 1 year, past six-month order volume is 5, transaction value is CN¥13.5K+, and customer feedback consists of only 1 review, despite a 5.0 store rating. This makes the supplier more suitable for buyers seeking controlled trial orders, customized ink-related products, or early-stage supplier development rather than high-volume immediate procurement without further validation.

Detailed Analysis

1. Company Strength

Basis
- Factory area: 45,000+㎡
- Staff size: 140+ staff
- Verified supplier: True

Elaboration
The supplier reports a sizeable factory area and a staff base above 140 people, indicating that it has more than basic production capacity. The factory scale is stronger than that of a small workshop-type supplier, and verified supplier status adds credibility to its operational presence.

Scoring Rationale
The factory area is substantial, while the employee count suggests a medium-scale operating structure rather than a very large industrial group. The presence of supplier verification supports reliability, but the data does not include detailed production lines, annual output, equipment lists, or capacity utilization. Therefore, the company fits best into the upper range of a medium stable factory.

Final Score
17 / 20

2. Platform & Compliance Credibility

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

Elaboration
The supplier has several important platform credibility indicators, including Gold Supplier status, Trade Assurance, and supplier verification. The available service and inspection tags also strengthen its compliance profile, especially Finished Product Inspection and warranty availability.

Scoring Rationale
The platform credibility structure is relatively complete, but the Gold Supplier history is short at only 1 year. This limits the depth of platform trust compared with suppliers that have several years of verified operating history. The supplier has core credibility elements, but long-term platform consistency is not yet proven.

Final Score
16 / 20

3. Business Performance

Basis
- Orders in past 6 months: 5
- Transaction value in past 6 months: CN¥13.5K+
- Store rating: 5.0
- Number of reviews: 1

Elaboration
The supplier has completed transactions on the platform, but the recent order count and transaction value are relatively low. The store rating is excellent at 5.0, but it is supported by only one review, which limits the statistical reliability of the feedback.

Scoring Rationale
Commercial validation exists but remains limited. Five orders and CN¥13.5K+ in six months suggest early or low-volume platform activity rather than strong market traction. The 5.0 score is positive, but the single review does not provide enough evidence of broad customer acceptance.

Final Score
11 / 20

4. Service Capability

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

Elaboration
The supplier demonstrates acceptable communication responsiveness and has customization-related service tags. Full Customization and ODM service availability indicate that the supplier can support buyers requiring tailored product specifications within the listed product scope.

Scoring Rationale
The response time is not within the highest benchmark of ≤1 hour, but ≤2 hours is still commercially acceptable. Combined with Full Customization and ODM capability, the supplier shows solid service flexibility, though not at the top-tier response level.

Final Score
8 / 10

5. Delivery Performance

Basis
- On-time delivery rate: 100.0%

Elaboration
The reported on-time delivery rate is excellent. Based strictly on the provided data, the supplier has achieved full on-time shipment performance.

Scoring Rationale
A 100.0% on-time delivery rate exceeds the 90% threshold for the highest scoring range. However, the data does not specify the number of shipments behind this rate, so the score reflects the reported delivery metric while recognizing that transaction volume is limited elsewhere in the dataset.

Final Score
10 / 10

6. Quality & Customer Feedback

Basis
- Store rating: 5.0
- Reviews: 1
- Finished Product Inspection: Available
- Verified supplier: True
- Warranty available: Yes

Elaboration
The supplier has several quality assurance indicators, including Finished Product Inspection, warranty availability, and verified supplier status. The 5.0 store rating is favorable, but the feedback base is very small.

Scoring Rationale
Quality assurance mechanisms appear present, especially Finished Product Inspection and warranty availability. However, only one customer review is insufficient to confirm consistent quality performance across multiple buyers or repeated orders. The score is therefore positive but moderated by limited customer feedback data.

Final Score
15 / 20

Total Score

77 / 100

Procurement Recommendation

Cooperation is recommended with controlled risk management. This supplier is suitable for trial orders, small-to-medium procurement programs, and buyers seeking listed water-based pigment printing, digital transfer ink, eco-friendly ink, or DTG printer-related products with customization support.

Key risks include short Gold Supplier history, low recent order volume, limited transaction value, and only one customer review. Its growth potential is supported by a reported 45,000+㎡ factory area, 140+ staff, verified supplier status, Trade Assurance, Finished Product Inspection, Full Customization, and 100.0% reported on-time delivery. For larger-volume procurement, buyers should request samples, confirm inspection standards, and validate production capacity before scaling orders.
