AI is rapidly reshaping industries and redefining the competitive landscape. A ‘wake up call’ of US industry, a ‘threat’ to US dominance…Recently, the launch of DeepSeek AI by a Chinese startup has raised alarms among U.S. investors.

DeepSeek’s AI model, comparable in performance to OpenAI’s official version, was developed at a fraction of the cost—only $5.6 million, far less than the hundreds of millions or even billions invested by U.S. tech giants. The latest breakthrough by Chinese AI startup DeepSeek has rocked the U.S. tech industry’s perception of invincibility and investor confidence in U.S. tech industry's in its competitiveness, causing stock values to plummet, with NVIDIA Corporation—the chip maker at the heart of the AI revolution—losing $600 billion in value as of January 27.

In this blog, we’ve analyzed recommendations from leading AI models like ChatGPT and DeepSeek, which offer key criteria for evaluating manufacturers. At Rebenet, we not only meet these standards but exceed them—here’s how we do it.

1. Quality Control

Ensure they have robust quality control systems in place. Quality consistency is vital for long-term success. Ask for details on their testing processes and certifications (e.g., CE, ISO, UL).

2. Compliance with Regulations

Verify that they adhere to the necessary standards and regulations in your target markets (e.g., EU and US safety standards).

Deepseek

1. Compliance & Certifications

• Regulatory Standards:Ensure the manufacturer meets EU (CE, EN standards) and US (UL, NSF, ANSI) certifications.

• Sustainability: Prioritize eco-friendly practices (ISO 14001) and energy-efficient products (Energy Star), especially for EU clients.

2. Quality Assurance

• Certifications: Look for ISO 9001, HACCP, or GMP certifications.

• Factory Audits: Conduct on-site visits to inspect production processes and quality control systems.

• Material Durability: Verify use of food-grade, corrosion-resistant materials (e.g., stainless steel 304/316).

Make sure the manufacturer has gained the certification that your target market needs. Certifications like ISO and CE demonstrate that a manufacturer meets internationally recognized standards for quality, safety, and environmental practices. This can help build trust with your customers, as they know they’re getting reliable products that meet high standards.

1. Production Capacity and Lead Times

Evaluate their production capacity to ensure they can handle your order volumes without delays. You’ll also want to discuss lead times for regular orders, especially if your business scales.

Deepseek

1. Production Capabilities

●Capacity & Scalability: Assess ability to handle current volume and scale production as needed.

1.Location and Logistics

A manufacturer with efficient shipping processes and proximity to your target markets (Europe and America) can help reduce shipping costs and delivery times.

Deepseek

1. Logistics

Logistics Expertise: Partner with manufacturers experienced in exporting to Europe/US, with reliable shipping partners (e.g., DHL, FedEx).

Longer shipping distances result in longer lead times. If the manufacturer is in a location with efficient logistics networks, the lead time between production and delivery can be much shorter. However, the location of the factory is not only influence delivery time but also the cost like tariffs. In regions with lower labor costs, manufacturers can offer competitive pricing for bulk orders. Labor costs in regions like the EU or North America may be higher, potentially increasing production costs.

How Rebenet Delivers

●Global Logistics Network: Located in Guangzhou, cost-effective delivery to Europe and the Americas.

●Competitive Pricing: Bulk-order discounts and flexible payment terms to optimize your cash flow.

1.Price and Terms

Compare pricing, payment terms, and overall cost-effectiveness. While price shouldn’t be the sole deciding factor, it should align with your budget and the level of quality you expect.

Deepseek

1. Cost Structure

●Transparent Pricing: Negotiate bulk discounts and favorable payment terms (e.g., staggered payments).

●MOQs: Ensure minimum order quantities align with your business needs.

Cost is a factor but the cheapest option isn’t the best. If the pricing is too low, you must ensure quality isn’t compromised, as lower costs can sometimes mean lower-grade materials or reduced quality control. Flexible payment terms can help you manage your cash flow more efficiently. MOQ determines the smallest number of units you can order. If the MOQ is too high, it may strain your budget or warehouse space.
