Company Group.
Zenzu Chinese furniture is part of a small group of companies focused on manufacturing and craftsmanship in China. There are several business entities including Rocombe Design Ltd, Aston Holdings Group Ltd and Sund Sourcing Ltd. The oriental furniture business falls under the remit of Rocombe Design Ltd which in turn offers UK warehousing services to Sund Sourcing Ltd and Aston Holdings Group Ltd. Aston Holding Group Ltd will cover the new Domo Doors business as a legal entity and has been set up specifically as a vehicle for promoting new online retail businesses. Aston Holding Group Ltd also looks at projects from Sund Sourcing Ltd that may present a good retail / re-seller opportunity.
Sund Sourcing Ltd is a Hong Kong based company which provides engineering, design, sourcing and product development services to small business in the UK. The focus is on helping these companies manufacture products in China and Sund’s specialism is in taking on new or entrepreneurial companies and helping them to design, develop and manufacture products in China; it also offers storage and distribution solution to its UK customer base. Sund Sourcing Ltd has directors who are also involved in Rocombe Design Ltd and it is therefore not surprising to know that Sund Sourcing Ltd was involved in the initial investigation into the Zenzu Chinese furniture retail project. It’s primary role was in visiting oriental furniture factories and workshops throughout the Zhejiang province with the aim of finding a reliable, flexible and friendly supplier to work with.
Sund Sourcing Ltd has an office in South China and for the Chinese furniture business having a presence in the country is invaluable. Staff can be on a plane and in Cixi in the Zhejiang province within a day if there are any urgent quality issues surrounding the oriental furniture that needs to be shipped over to UK for retail distribution.
Sund Sourcing Ltd is a registered Hong Kong Company but has its genesis in Sweden with the founder of the company who moved to China/Hong Kong at the end of the 1990s. Started four years ago and originally focused on helping a few larger Swedish companies establish themselves in the Guangdong region, the company has expanded to focus on a wider range of smaller companies, primarily in Scandinavia and the UK. The company does have knowledge of Chinese furniture and maintains strong links with the oriental furniture industry in Zhejiang, however it’s real skill-set is in its engineering force. The team includes product designers, engineers with expertise in plastics, metals and packaging, as well as generalist managers who help customers find and liaise with good Chinese suppliers in and amongst the overwhelming choice that is available.
