The main pros of manufacturing in China include lower production costs, faster production and scalability, international expansion, service for international clients, and access to a large labor pool.

The main cons of manufacturing in China include intellectual property protection, increased competition, quality control issues, cultural and language barriers, travel distance and environmental regulations.

Additionally, there is the risk of counterfeiting or knock-off products, and the potential for labor exploitation.

Ideally, work with a production partner on the ground - like POTKETEL (click to plan a call) - to control the issues and make the most of the advantages.
