Is Outsourcing to China Over? | www.inc.com

As US importers and manufacturers reexamine their outsourcing strategies in China and Southeast Asia they must consider closely the ever-changing landscape related to international shipping prior to taking any significant action. Obviously product characteristics, raw material requirements, manufacturing processes, and end user markets will play a vital role in any sourcing strategies. However, with increases in transportation primarily in fuel surcharges and increasing labor costs in China this discussion has taken on a new priority.
