Open China is a Portuguese import and sourcing agency that supports companies importing from China into Portugal. The website publishes an office address in Faro (postal code 8005-542) and states that the team works from two locations, Faro in Portugal and Shenzhen in China, with translation included in the project work. Published services cover product import from China, procurement and global sourcing, import feasibility consulting, quality inspection and production checks before shipment, international logistics with transport, documentation and customs support, and ODM/OEM support for own-brand or adapted products. The process is described in four stages: initial analysis of product, volume and requirements; supplier search and negotiation; production monitoring and verification; logistics and entry into Portugal. The company lists covered sectors including industry, engineering and energy, construction and housing, automotive and mobility, technology, health and wellness, consumer and retail, and custom ODM/OEM projects. Contact details are published as info@openchina.pt and +351 289 090 754, together with LinkedIn, Instagram and Facebook profiles that are actively maintained with content on China trade topics and the Canton Fair. No company registration number and no founding year are published; the site states more than ten years of experience.

Open China is a Portuguese agency that organises imports from China for companies based in Portugal. Its published setup is unusual for a small European agent in one respect: it states that it operates two teams, one in Faro in the Algarve and one in Shenzhen, and that suppliers, production and logistics in China are handled by its own people rather than by a partner. The Faro address and postal code 8005-542 are published, along with the phone number +351 289 090 754 and the email address info@openchina.pt. The service scope follows a normal import project from start to finish. It begins with an assessment of whether the planned import makes commercial sense, given the product, the volume and the requirements, then moves to identifying and validating Chinese suppliers, negotiating commercial terms, monitoring production and checking quality before shipment, and finally coordinating transport, documentation and customs clearance into Portugal. ODM and OEM projects are covered separately, which means the agency also handles own-brand products and adaptations rather than only buying existing goods. Translation is listed as part of the service, so the buyer does not need Chinese-speaking staff to manage the supplier. The industries named on the site are broad, from industry, engineering and energy through construction, automotive, technology and health and wellness to consumer and retail products, plus seasonal and sustainable goods. Our take: this profile suits Portuguese small and mid-sized companies that are buying in China for the first time or that want a local contact in Portugal for the commercial side of the project, with a real counterpart in Shenzhen for the operational side. Because no corporate registration and no founding year are published, buyers should ask for the Portuguese registration details, for a written scope with the inspection protocol, and for references before the first order.
Open China does not publish prices, fee structures or commission rates. Enquiries start through the contact form, by email at info@openchina.pt or by phone on +351 289 090 754. Before commissioning, ask for the Portuguese registration details, the fee basis (project fee, retainer or commission), the inspection standard that applies before shipment and who carries liability if goods arrive outside specification.
The website publishes an office in Faro, Portugal, with the postal code 8005-542, and states that a second team works in Shenzhen, China. Contact details are info@openchina.pt and +351 289 090 754.
Published services are product import from China, procurement and global sourcing, import feasibility consulting, quality inspection and production monitoring, international logistics with transport, documentation and customs support, and ODM and OEM support for own-brand products. Translation is included in the project work.
A team in Shenzhen can visit suppliers, follow up production at the factory and handle pre-shipment inspection locally, which reduces the risk of accepting a good sample but receiving a different production batch. It also makes it easier to handle export documentation and freight booking from China.
No. Neither a Portuguese registration number nor a founding year is published, and there is no published price list or commission rate. Ask for the registration details, a written scope and the fee basis before the first order.
