Yiwu Deya Hosiery Co., Ltd. Supplier Evaluation

Executive Summary

Yiwu Deya Hosiery Co., Ltd. is a China-based hosiery supplier located in Zhejiang, with a reported factory area of 5,000+㎡ and 20+ staff. The supplier is listed as a verified supplier and operates as a 1-year Gold Supplier with Trade Assurance support. Its available product data indicates baby/newborn floor hosiery-type products with a low MOQ of 2 pieces, suggesting suitability for small-batch purchasing or trial orders. However, the company’s commercial track record on the platform is still limited, with only 10+ orders and CN¥6K+ transaction value over the past six months. Store rating is 4.0, but the review base is very small, with only 1 review. Delivery performance is moderate at 87.5% on-time shipment. Overall, this supplier appears suitable for buyers seeking low-MOQ sourcing, sample testing, or small-volume procurement, but larger buyers should conduct further verification before scaling orders.

Detailed Analysis

1. Company Strength

Basis

• Company name: Yiwu Deya Hosiery Co., Ltd.
• Country / region: China, Zhejiang
• Factory area: 5,000+㎡
• Staff size: 20+ staff
• Verified supplier: True

Elaboration

The supplier reports a factory area of over 5,000㎡, which indicates a physical production or operating base of moderate size. However, the employee count is relatively limited at 20+ staff. This suggests that while the company has a defined operating site, its labor scale is not large. The presence of verified supplier status provides a degree of factory or supplier credibility, but the available data does not include detailed production line numbers, monthly output, machinery capacity, or factory audit report specifics.

Scoring Rationale

The company has a meaningful factory area and verified supplier status, which supports basic production credibility. However, the staff size is small, and no detailed production capacity figures are provided. Based on the scoring standard, this does not qualify as a large-scale stable supply chain. It is better classified as a smaller to lower-mid-sized supplier with basic production capability and some verification support.

Final Score

13 / 20

2. Platform & Compliance Credibility

Basis

• Gold Supplier: True
• Gold Supplier duration: 1 year
• Trade Assurance: True
• Certification / industry labels:
• Response time ≤1h
• On-time delivery 87.5%
• Verified supplier: True

Elaboration

The supplier has core platform credibility indicators, including Gold Supplier status and Trade Assurance support. It is also listed as a verified supplier, which strengthens baseline trust. However, the Gold Supplier duration is only 1 year, which means the supplier has a relatively short verified history on the platform. The provided certification or industry label data mainly reflects service and delivery metrics, not broader compliance certificates or product-related certifications.

Scoring Rationale

The supplier has important platform-backed trust elements, especially Gold Supplier status, Trade Assurance, and supplier verification. However, the short Gold Supplier history limits long-term credibility assessment. In addition, no independent product certifications, compliance documents, or detailed factory audit certificates are provided in the dataset. Therefore, the platform credibility is acceptable but not yet highly mature.

Final Score

15 / 20

3. Business Performance

Basis

• Orders in the past 6 months: 10+
• Transaction value in the past 6 months: CN¥6K+
• Store rating: 4.0
• Number of reviews: 1

Elaboration

The supplier has completed some platform transactions, but the commercial volume remains low. Over the past six months, the supplier recorded 10+ orders and CN¥6K+ transaction value. This indicates active but limited market validation. The store rating of 4.0 is acceptable, but the rating is based on only 1 review, which is too limited to form a strong conclusion about consistent buyer satisfaction.

Scoring Rationale

The supplier has evidence of actual orders and transaction value, but both figures are relatively small. The low number of reviews significantly weakens the reliability of the store rating. A 4.0 rating is not poor, but with only 1 review, it cannot be considered strong proof of stable business performance. Therefore, the supplier should be viewed as commercially active but still lightly validated.

Final Score

10 / 20

4. Service Capability

Basis

• Communication response time: ≤1h
• Full Customization: Insufficient Data
• Other customization capability: Insufficient Data

Elaboration

The supplier demonstrates strong responsiveness, with a reported response time of less than or equal to one hour. This is positive for procurement communication, sample confirmation, quotation clarification, and order follow-up. However, the provided data does not state whether the supplier supports Full Customization, logo customization, packaging customization, OEM, ODM, or other forms of tailored production.

Scoring Rationale

The response speed meets the highest service-response threshold, which is a clear advantage. However, service capability is not only about response speed; customization capacity is also part of the scoring dimension. Because customization data is not provided, the supplier cannot receive a top score. The available information supports efficient communication but does not confirm strong customization ability.

Final Score

7 / 10

5. Delivery Performance

Basis

• On-time delivery rate: 87.5%

Elaboration

The supplier’s on-time delivery rate is 87.5%, placing it within the 80%–89% scoring band. This indicates a generally acceptable delivery record but not a best-in-class logistics or fulfillment performance. For buyers with flexible delivery windows, this may be manageable. For time-sensitive buyers, the 12.5% non-on-time portion should be considered a potential operational risk.

Scoring Rationale

According to the scoring standard, an on-time delivery rate between 80% and 89% corresponds to 7–8 points. At 87.5%, the supplier is toward the upper side of this range but still below the 90% threshold required for a 9–10 score. Therefore, the delivery performance is moderate-to-good but not excellent.

Final Score

8 / 10

6. Quality & Customer Feedback

Basis

• Store rating: 4.0
• Number of reviews: 1
• Finished Product Inspection: Insufficient Data
• Factory Verification: Verified supplier status is True
• Product certification data: Insufficient Data

Elaboration

The supplier has a store rating of 4.0, which indicates acceptable customer feedback. However, this rating is based on only 1 review, making the reliability of the feedback limited. The company is listed as a verified supplier, which provides some quality and credibility support at the supplier level. However, there is no provided evidence of Finished Product Inspection, product test reports, third-party quality inspection procedures, or formal quality-management certifications.

Scoring Rationale

The supplier has some positive quality indicators, including a 4.0 rating and verified supplier status. However, the very small review count greatly limits confidence in customer satisfaction consistency. In addition, the absence of Finished Product Inspection information and product-level quality certification data prevents a higher score. The quality profile is therefore basic and partially supported, but not strongly proven.

Final Score

12 / 20

Procurement Recommendation

Recommendation: Conditional cooperation recommended for small-volume or trial procurement.

Yiwu Deya Hosiery Co., Ltd. is suitable for buyers seeking low-MOQ sourcing, sample orders, small-batch purchases, or early-stage supplier testing. The supplier has several positive baseline indicators, including verified supplier status, Trade Assurance, 1-year Gold Supplier membership, fast response time, and a moderate factory area of 5,000+㎡.

However, the main risks are limited business validation, low transaction volume, only 1 customer review, and insufficient data on product inspection, customization capability, and formal quality certifications. The 87.5% on-time delivery rate is acceptable but should be monitored for time-sensitive orders.

For procurement teams, the recommended approach is to begin with a small trial order, confirm product quality through samples, request inspection evidence before shipment, and verify customization capability directly if required. Growth potential exists if the supplier can improve transaction volume, accumulate more verified reviews, strengthen quality documentation, and raise delivery performance above 90%.
