We’ve Grown, Together

We’ve tripled the size of our company and grown our China Desk team fivefold. This incredible growth is thanks to our clients’ trust in us, and we couldn’t be more grateful.

Today, we hire and manage professionals across the full breadth of supply chain functions on behalf of our clients. These include quality engineers and sourcing managers to R&D specialists and logistics coordinators. Here’s a snapshot of the roles we currently support:

Quality (34%)
Product Dev/R&D (21%)
Sourcing (17%)
Supply Chain (13%)
Purchasing (13%)
Business Dev (4%)
Logistics (4%)

Investing in Our People

With our expanding team, we’ve placed a strong focus on nurturing talent from within. We’re delighted that Sophie Wan has stepped into the role of HR Manager, where she’s been doing a wonderful job keeping our China Desk members connected and supported.

Expanding Our Footprint

We’re now hiring people in more Chinese cities than ever before.

Tianjin
Shanghai
Hangzhou
Guangzhou
Foshan
Shenzhen
Hong Kong
Chengdu
Ningbo
Xiamen
Dongguan

We established two new legal entities in China this year — one in Hangzhou and one in Foshan — which means we can now hire and onboard employees directly in those cities.

We also had the pleasure of creating a bespoke private office for one of our China Desk clients in Guangzhou. With four dedicated team members, this office has become a vital hub for our client’s China operations.

Lights, Camera, Action!

Last year, we took the plunge and launched our very own YouTube series.

The idea was simple: we spend every day navigating China’s labour laws, HR challenges and team management complexities. Why not share that expertise more widely?

Reaching New Horizons

Our partnership with the Brazil Chamber of Commerce has opened doors to exciting new markets. Latin American companies have been expanding their presence in China, and we’re grateful to the Chamber for connecting us with these businesses.

On the flip side, we’ve also become a turnkey partner for companies transitioning out. Three clients moved portions of their supply chains outside China this year, and Kinyu supported them in new markets while continuing to manage their teams on the ground. Wherever your business is headed, we’re here to help.

Looking Ahead

As we grow, we remain committed to the principles that guide everything we do: Resilience, Flexibility, and being a Great Employer.

Resilience

Building robust supply chains that withstand disruption and adapt to changing global conditions.

Flexibility

Scale your operations up or down. No long-term commitments, no bureaucratic overhead.

Great Employer

We attract top talent by creating exceptional working environments and genuine career paths.

Thank you to our clients, employees, and partners for making 2025 such a remarkable year. If you’re looking to build, grow or transition your team in China, we’d love to hear from you.
