About Us

We design and manufacture new products from scratch. Then we wrap each offering with top notch services that you require and expect.

Distributor-Centric
Gates2China is a company looking to partner with the best distributors. We are interested in partnerships that get the right products in front of your clientele and into the market quickly and efficiently. Together, we can deliver the right products at the right time with the right expectations met, into the right hands.

2 Keys, 2 Advantages
Gates2China is one company with two aims-two keys to open two windows of opportunities in China.

Key to Innovative Ad-Incentive Products
Combining our talent for design, innovativeness and manufacturing expertise, we are committed to delivering innovative products that can be used in promotions, special events, charities and other avenues.

Key to Innovative OEM Manufacturing
We are committed to providing our clients high quality services to enable them to design, engineer and produce all their custom made products with us. In short, if you have an idea that rocks, we will give you the tools to do it using our vast manufacturing expertise and resources in China.

Distributors Wanted
Gates2China is not about cutting out distributors and going direct. It does not work without strong partnerships and relationships on the ground. We know- we've seen it tried time and time again.

While other companies stealthily strive to work with your end buyers(i.e. your customers), we will not. You have the relationships and know-how and we need you to help get our products into your buyers hands and into the market. We understand the importance that your hard work and diligence plays in the chain.

The China Advantage
China holds the keys to cost and operational efficiency-if you know how to open the right doors. With our experience and manufacturing expertise in China, Gates2China has the right keys to open those doors to give you products delivered at the right time and right price.

The Gates2China Advantage
If you are concerned about working in China, or have had a bad experience, do not fret--we've been there. Instead, Gates2China believes in working with you to build a successful business model or proposition and get your promises to your clients delivered. Leave the rest of the worries to us.
We deliver on expectations and deal with everyone in a straightforward, open and honest way.

Gatekeepers
Gates2China is led by people who have had extensive experience in the industry.

Kenneth Chan- Managing Director
Born and raised in Canada, Ken has a diverse background in consumer products. His experiences include retail buying, importing and manufacturing from Asia. He has been living in Hong Kong for the last 15 yrs in which time he has developed a firm knowledge of manufacturing in China, product design, engineering, and how to work effectively with Chinese manufacturers.

"Like a lot of people who grew up in North America, I always liked "do-it-yourself" projects. China being the so-called "factory to the world" has enabled us to flourish in new product development; something which is key to differentiating us from all the rest. My years in Asia have allowed me to work on and develop many top consumer products. One of the most fulfilling parts of this business is seeing your products come to market. There is a certain amount of pride I carry in that knowledge!"

Sally Schomp- Director of USA Sales
Sally has been in the Ad Specialty product arena for the last 12 years. Sally has had ample experience on both the buying and fulfilment side of the promotional business as well as the sales and marketing sides.

"In my experience, communication is key to success in China. Although products made in China were of good quality, we could not always count on the overseas supplier delivering on what he/she promised. Delays in production, colours and logos not matching our requests, changes in design without informing us, and just simple language and cultural differences made it more difficult than it needed to be. When Ken explained his vision of Gates2China to me, I was totally psyched as he seemed to know the problems we faced in the U.S. with Asian suppliers. I believe in this same vision, which is to make our clients the focal point of our business. Only when we can help them succeed will we ultimately succeed."
