Zhejiang Xinli Fuse Co., Ltd. Supplier Evaluation

Executive Summary

Zhejiang Xinli Fuse Co., Ltd. is a China-based fuse supplier located in Zhejiang, with a reported factory area of 4,500+ m² and 70+ staff. The supplier appears to operate as a small-to-medium production entity with listed products covering fuse-related items such as high breaking capacity fuses, cylindrical fuses, DIN rail type fuse products, low-voltage ceramic fuses, and NH-type fuses. Its platform credibility is relatively strong, supported by 11 years as an Gold Supplier and Trade Assurance availability. However, the company is not marked as a verified factory supplier, and no independent factory audit data is provided. Business performance is moderate to limited, with 10+ orders and CN¥67.6K+ transaction value over the past six months. The store rating is 5.0, but only 5 reviews are available, limiting feedback reliability. This supplier may be suitable for small-batch procurement, sample testing, and buyers requiring low MOQ fuse products, but delivery reliability and limited customer feedback require caution.

Detailed Analysis

1. Company Strength

Basis
- Factory area: 4,500+ m²
- Employees: 70+ staff
- Verified supplier / factory audit status: False
- Product listings indicate fuse-related electrical components.

Elaboration
The supplier has a measurable physical production base and staff size, suggesting it has basic manufacturing or supply capability. A 4,500+ m² facility and 70+ employees indicate a small-to-medium operational scale rather than a large-scale industrial supplier. The available product range is concentrated around fuse products, which supports a focused business positioning. However, the absence of verified supplier or factory audit status reduces confidence in independently confirmed production capability.

Scoring Rationale
The company has tangible scale indicators, but they do not reach the level of a large-scale stable supply chain. The lack of factory verification prevents assigning a higher score, as the reported factory size and employee count cannot be externally validated through the provided data. It demonstrates basic production capacity, but not strong institutional manufacturing assurance.

Final Score: 12 / 20

2. Platform & Compliance Credibility

Basis
- Gold Supplier: True
- Gold Supplier duration: 11 years
- Trade Assurance: True
- Certification / industry tags: Warranty available, Finished product inspection, Minor customization, ODM service available
- Verified supplier status: False

Elaboration
The supplier has a long platform history, with 11 years as a Gold Supplier, which is a positive credibility indicator. Trade Assurance availability improves transaction protection for buyers. The presence of platform tags such as Finished Product Inspection and Warranty available also supports a basic compliance and buyer-protection framework. However, the lack of verified supplier status limits the strength of the credibility profile.

Scoring Rationale
The long Gold Supplier history and Trade Assurance support justify a strong platform credibility score. However, because factory or supplier verification is marked as False, the supplier does not fully meet the highest credibility tier. The profile is credible from a platform transaction perspective, but not fully validated from a factory-audit perspective.

Final Score: 17 / 20

3. Business Performance

Basis
- Orders in past 6 months: 10+
- Transaction amount in past 6 months: CN¥67.6K+
- Store rating: 5.0
- Review count: 5

Elaboration
The supplier has recorded commercial activity over the past six months, but the scale is relatively limited. A 5.0 store rating is positive, yet the review base is very small, meaning the rating has limited statistical strength. The transaction amount of CN¥67.6K+ indicates active but not high-volume sales performance.

Scoring Rationale
The supplier has some validated business activity, but the order count and transaction value are not high. The excellent rating improves the assessment, but only 5 reviews are insufficient to confirm broad customer satisfaction. Therefore, the supplier fits the lower-to-mid business performance range rather than a high-performing commercial supplier.

Final Score: 13 / 20

4. Service Capability

Basis
- Response time: ≤2h
- Customization tags: Minor customization, ODM service available
- Full Customization: Insufficient Data

Elaboration
A response time of ≤2 hours suggests acceptable communication efficiency. The supplier also lists minor customization and ODM service availability, which indicates some level of service flexibility. However, the data does not confirm Full Customization capability, so stronger customization capability cannot be assumed.

Scoring Rationale
The response time is good, but not within the ≤1 hour range required for the highest score band. Customization capability exists at a basic or moderate level based on minor customization and ODM tags, but the absence of Full Customization data limits the score.

Final Score: 7 / 10

5. Delivery Performance

Basis
- On-time delivery rate: 72.7%

Elaboration
The on-time delivery rate is a key operational risk indicator. At 72.7%, the supplier falls within the 70–79% band. This suggests delivery performance is below the level expected for highly reliable supply chains and may require closer order tracking.

Scoring Rationale
Based strictly on the scoring rule, an on-time delivery rate between 70% and 79% corresponds to 5–6 points. Since 72.7% is closer to the lower-middle of this range, the supplier receives a conservative score.

Final Score: 5 / 10

6. Quality & Customer Feedback

Basis
- Store rating: 5.0
- Review count: 5
- Finished Product Inspection: Present
- Factory Verification: False
- Warranty available: Present

Elaboration
The supplier has a perfect listed store rating and provides Finished Product Inspection, which supports basic quality control. Warranty availability is also a positive buyer-protection indicator. However, the review count is very limited, and factory verification is not confirmed. This means the quality profile is promising but not strongly proven through broad buyer feedback or third-party factory validation.

Scoring Rationale
The high rating and Finished Product Inspection justify a moderate quality score. However, only 5 reviews are available, which is too limited to support a high-confidence quality conclusion. The lack of factory verification also prevents the supplier from reaching the top quality tier.

Final Score: 14 / 20

Total Score

Total Score: 68 / 100

Procurement Recommendation

Cooperation is conditionally recommended for small-batch procurement, sample orders, price testing, and buyers seeking fuse products with low MOQ options. The supplier has strong platform tenure, Trade Assurance support, acceptable response speed, and basic quality safeguards such as Finished Product Inspection.

However, it is not recommended as a primary strategic supplier without further verification. Key risks include the 72.7% on-time delivery rate, limited review count, modest recent transaction volume, and absence of verified factory status. Buyers should start with small trial orders, confirm product specifications carefully, request inspection documentation, and monitor delivery performance before scaling order volume. Growth potential exists if the supplier can improve delivery reliability, accumulate more customer feedback, and obtain stronger factory verification credentials.
