Why My Red Compass?
We use our expertise and established relationships with the right people in the industry, guiding you through the process of manufacture & procurement in China to ensure you get the products and services you want, when you need them.
Transparency
We believe it’s critical to be transparent with customers from the onset if we intend to be successful. Transparency and open communication creates trust and ultimately helps to maximise the potential of your goals. We are honest and open about the way we work, and our pricing. You benefit from clear costings, with no upfront costs, or hidden fees. We work with you, as an extension of your team.
We believe transparency is a key way of creating trust because it helps eliminate any suspicions or anxieties you might have about the value of what we’re offering.
Understanding
There is still a common thought around the world that business is just about core business principles and making money. There is an assumption that issues like culture don’t really matter. Culture does matter – in many ways. Although people focus on
the bottom line, people do business with people they like, trust, and understand. Culture determines all of these key issues.
To achieve the best possible outcome Chinese culture and business practices must be understood. My Red Compass fully understands both worlds.
Innovation
Our ability to work innovatively means responding and adapting to changes quickly, resulting in supply chain resilience. We keep things simple – making procurement quicker, easier, and more effective. We remove the hurdles, discuss and implement
strategies, offer solutions and help you to deliver projects.
We work to streamline the procurement process and solve any problems which can occur swiftly and effectively, which allows you to focus on what you do best to achieve better outcomes.
“When you’re dealing with people from another culture, you may find that their business practices, communication, and management styles are different from those to which you are accustomed. Understanding Chinese culture is of paramount importance to successful business interactions and to accomplishing business objectives”

What our customers say
“Jamie and Katie carry with them a wealth of experience working for many years in China which allows them to know the ins and outs of Chinese commerce. They understand first hand the subtle cultural and business nuances and then use this knowledge to their advantage to strike the best deals available. Their work has resulted in a net saving in our supplier costs of well in excess of 40% for our company.
I can’t recommend MRC highly enough and are a must for any UK business transacting with China.”
Director, Sam Theuma: Gazebo Land

Managing Director, Paul Chesney: Chesneys

Since moving production we have continued to work with My Red Compass and the new factory to produce the range. The quality of the furniture has been excellent and, with Katie at My Red Compass acting as our representative to regularly liaise with the factory, any issues we raise are responded to quickly and effectively.
We have developed an excellent relationship and I would highly recommend My Red Compass as a sourcing partner.”
