About — Amora Global

Our story

Why we built Amora Global

Amora Global was formally registered as an agency in Shenzhen in 2025, which is why our domain and corporate records date from that year. The sourcing and production work behind the agency is older than the letterhead. Victoria Chamberlin and Amy Liao had already been working on Chinese factory sourcing, supplier vetting, and production management for years before deciding to bring that work under one name. Together, we bring more than a decade of combined personal sourcing experience into every engagement.

We built Amora Global because the sourcing agency market is crowded with intermediaries who add margin without adding diligence. Buyers we spoke to kept describing the same pain points: opaque pricing, factories overpromising capabilities, and production problems that only surface after the shipment leaves the port. Amora was designed around those three failure modes. We quote transparent rates, we walk factory floors in person before we recommend them, and we stay with orders until they clear inspection.

An honest note on agency age

If you have seen our domain registration date of 2025, that reflects when we formalized the agency. It does not reflect Victoria's or Amy's personal experience in China sourcing, which is substantially longer. The section below breaks down exactly what each of us brings, with real factory names and product categories we have worked on.

Founders

Who you will actually be working with

Amora Global is a two founder team with clearly separated roles. You will usually be on email and WhatsApp with Victoria, and on the factory floor with Amy.

Victoria Chamberlin

Founder · Business Development & Client Strategy

Victoria leads client relationships, commercial strategy, and new market development from the international side of the business. She is the first point of contact for new buyers and the person writing the proposal, the project scope, and the commercial terms for every engagement.

Her background combines business development across Australia, the United States, Europe, and Southeast Asia, with on the ground time in China working directly with Chinese manufacturers. She also leads the Thailand distribution channel for the solar electric cargo tricycle and prefab steel warehouse product lines.

Amy Liao

Founder · Factory Operations & Quality

Amy runs the operational side of Amora Global from Shenzhen. She is the person who walks the factory floor, asks the hard technical questions in Mandarin, builds and maintains our supplier network across Guangdong, and owns quality assurance from sample round through pre shipment inspection.

Her working network covers electronics assembly, smart wearables, ODM production lines, consumer goods, and industrial manufacturing. She handles component level cost breakdowns, sample iteration, production milestones, and on site QC for every client order we manage.

Transparency

Answers to the questions serious buyers ask us

Some buyers have stopped us on these points in the past. We have consolidated the answers here so anyone reviewing our agency can get them in one place.

Is the agency the same age as your experience?

No. Amora Global was formalized as an agency in 2025. The sourcing work Victoria and Amy have been doing predates the agency by several years. We think buyers deserve that distinction up front, so we put it in writing rather than blending the two.

Why do you list hospitality, retail, household goods, electronics, fashion, and fitness on some materials but not wearables or medical?

Earlier marketing copy under emphasized the smart wearable and medical device work we actually do. That has now been corrected on the Industries page. Smart wearables and medical adjacent electronics, including PPG sensing devices and Nordic SoC based platforms, are an active and ongoing focus area for us.

Which smart wearable factories have you personally worked with?

We are happy to discuss specific factory names, product categories, and year of engagement in a direct conversation rather than listing them publicly. We also answer honestly if the answer is zero for a specific factory on a prospective buyer's list. Factory relationships are commercially sensitive, but our answer to this question in a private conversation is always accurate and fully sourced.

Can you handle technical specifications in Mandarin on the factory floor?

Yes. Amy translates terms like PPG sampling rate in hertz, BLE SDK raw data access, Nordic nRF54L15 SoC, and ISO 13485 scope accurately in Mandarin during factory conversations. If there is a highly specialized vocabulary list you want us to prepare in advance, we welcome a pre brief from your technical team and will prepare a bilingual glossary for the visit.

Do you offer dedicated attention during factory tours?

Yes. On any confirmed factory tour day, Amy is dedicated to that client for the full block with no parallel client commitments. Tour pricing is USD 300 for a half day and USD 500 for a full day, with as many factories as we can fit into the route.

How do the sourcing fee, commission, tour day, and retainer fit together?

Most engagements begin with a one time sourcing fee of USD 300 to 500, paid only after we have found a factory that matches your brief and shared the verification work. From there, commission of 3% to 8% applies on reorders, with the pilot production run exempt. A factory tour day (USD 300 half day or USD 500 full day) can be booked as a standalone diligence session or as part of a sourcing engagement. A monthly retainer is optional and suits clients running multiple programs in parallel. Our Services page explains each component with worked examples.

Can you provide your Shenzhen business license and founder LinkedIn profiles?

Yes. Our Shenzhen business license (营业执照) and both founders' LinkedIn profiles are provided on request as part of standard buyer due diligence. Please email victoria@amoraglobal.net or use the contact form and we will send them directly.

What happens between quoting and shipping?

Once you confirm an order with a factory we have sourced, Amora handles contract review, payment term analysis, production timeline monitoring, sample iteration, pre shipment inspection, and forwarder coordination. A bilingual project manager is assigned as your single point of contact and remains the same person for the duration of the engagement.
