Known to everyone, experienced by few.
We were founded to be your office in China rather than just another sourcing company. In Yiwu, the city of the world’s largest wholesale market, with a founder who thinks in Turkish and speaks Chinese.
We know exactly where trust in China breaks down.
Manufacturers and small traders alike tell the same story: the price looks good, the sample is fine; then production is late, the product does not match the sample, and the contact disappears. The problem is not manufacturing in China. The problem is having no one there who stands for you.
AYK Global Trade was founded to fill that gap. Our founder knows the Turkish market from the inside; he moved to China, speaks Chinese and set up a company in Yiwu. Today we work as a contact who speaks the factory’s language and thinks in yours.
Five principles. All written, all verifiable.
Open account
Factory price, service fee and expenses on separate lines. You always know what is in the price.
Written word
Timelines, criteria and quotes are written down. What is not written is not promised.
Selectivity
We do not take every job. If a job is not right, we say so at the start; if needed, we turn you away with the least loss.
A plan for each client
Two clients asking for the same product do not have the same needs. A separate plan and timeline for every job.
Business ethics first
Money is a means, not the goal. When necessary, we share the risk and finish the job. Even a client who has never bought from us is our best advertisement if the service was flawless.
Ahmet Turan AYIK
He knows the Turkish market from the inside; he settled in China, speaks Chinese and founded AYK Global Trade in Yiwu. He sits at the table with the factory himself; he takes the client’s call himself.
- A separate plan for every client.
- An open account in every quote.
- Written updates at every step.
In the city of the world’s largest wholesale market, in our own office.
Yiwu International Trade City, with 5.5 million square metres of indoor space and more than 75,000 shops, is the place the World Bank described in 2005 as “the world’s largest small commodity market”. Our office is in this city; the factories are a phone call away, the market a taxi ride away.
