Pupulan is an import-export trading and sourcing company based in Wenzhou, Zhejiang. We help overseas buyers work with independent factories, develop samples and coordinate their orders.
Founded in 2026 by Jayden Zheng, Pupulan brings his personal experience in procurement, order follow-up, sales, product development and export coordination into one directly managed service.
We are particularly interested in supporting independent brands, product startups and boutique online stores developing their own products in smaller quantities. Each project begins with a discussion of what is feasible: materials, workmanship, order quantity, budget and timing.

The company’s founding year.
The founder’s experience began before Pupulan.
One founder coordinating your project, supported by independent production, inspection and logistics partners.
After years in supply-chain roles, Jayden wanted to build a company around the standards he valued most: honest communication, consistent follow-up and clear working terms.
He had seen how an early “yes” could turn into a late admission that a material, process or production schedule was not achievable. Product details could change as they passed between people. Sample fees, minimum quantities and payment milestones were sometimes left unclear until an order was already under way.
These issues affect more than the goods. They can disrupt a buyer’s launch, replenishment plans and confidence in the next decision.
Pupulan was founded to take a more practical approach: understand the requirement, discuss the limitations and agree the next step before moving forward. We give quality, sample development and delivery planning the attention they need, alongside price.
Founder & your main project contact
“I explain the risks up front, so we can work through the decisions together.”
I started in foreign trade in Wenzhou in 2011, working in procurement and order follow-up. Over time, I took on sales, product development and export coordination, working both with domestic factories and directly with overseas buyers.
Today, I personally lead Pupulan’s customer projects. I handle the product brief, feasibility discussions, quotation comparisons, sampling communication and production follow-up. You can keep discussing the project with the person who knows how it started.
If a quality requirement cannot be met, a deadline looks unrealistic or a proposal is likely to exceed your budget, I will raise the issue and discuss alternatives before we proceed.
Entered foreign trade at a Wenzhou trading company, working directly with domestic suppliers.
Gradually took on sales, sampling, overseas customer communication and export coordination.
Founded the company to put that personal experience and working approach into practice.
Different starting points. The same need for clear product discussions and someone to follow through.
You have a creative direction and need help translating it into materials, construction, samples and practical factory instructions.
We work through the details with you, so important parts of the design are less likely to be lost between the brief and the sample.
You may arrive with drawings, a reference sample or an idea that still needs development.
We help clarify the requirements and discuss the trade-offs between materials, process, quantity, budget and timing.
You want to adapt a product through colour, branding, packaging or thoughtful changes to its details.
We coordinate feasibility and sample feedback before you decide how to move forward.
Our existing customer relationships are mainly with small and medium-sized importers and wholesalers in Europe, Southeast Asia and Australia. Independent brands and early-stage sellers are a focus for our future relationships.
Jayden’s strongest personal product experience is in everyday home products, fabric storage and soft gift items.
Cotton and linen home textiles, with attention to how the material, finish and construction suit the intended use.
Canvas storage sets and related fabric products, including structure, stitching, fabric weight and practical details.
Fabric gift items involving print, sewing and embossing, with samples used to discuss appearance and workmanship.
Material experience includes cotton, linen, polyester-cotton blends and heavier canvas. Requirements and supplier capability are assessed for each project.
Start with an existing style and discuss colour changes, branding, packaging or small construction adjustments. Feasibility and minimum quantities depend on the product and process.
Work through materials, construction, prototypes and revisions. Special materials, complex tooling and tight tolerances need an initial capability, cost and timing assessment.
Wenzhou is where Jayden has spent years working in foreign trade and building supplier relationships. Being here makes it practical to review samples, discuss workmanship face to face and coordinate issues with nearby partners.
Some cooperating factories are in Wenzhou and the surrounding area; others are elsewhere in China and are selected for a particular product or process. Location is one consideration. The project requirements come first.
Jayden personally leads day-to-day customer projects and coordinates the people carrying out the work. Independent factories, inspection personnel and freight forwarders support execution within the agreed project scope.

Three principles guide how we coordinate your project.
Raise capability limits, quality concerns and schedule pressure while there is still an opportunity to discuss a different approach.
Jayden stays involved in the brief, sample discussions and follow-up, connecting customer decisions with the people carrying out the work.
Clarify quotations, sample arrangements, scope, timing and payment milestones before the relevant work proceeds.
WhatsApp for day-to-day updates. Email for quotations, formal documents and confirmations. Photos or short videos at relevant stages, according to the project.
Review the first physical version and discuss how it compares with the brief.
Share changes and identify the details that need your confirmation.
Show material and cutting-stage progress where relevant to the product.
Share semi-finished product photos and raise issues requiring a decision.
Coordinate inspection and packing information within the agreed scope.
If something changes, you should hear about it. When a sample is wrong, a defect appears or a delay becomes likely, we aim to share the known facts promptly, along with options and the implications for timing.
A sample gives the buyer and supplier a shared reference. For a knitwear order, that might mean checking the colour, measurements, feel and finishing against the agreed brief.
Pupulan coordinates the review with the supplier, records requested changes and shares the revised sample for the buyer's written approval before bulk production begins.
ReviewCompare the sample with the agreed specifications
ReviseRecord changes and confirm them on the next sample
ApproveKeep the approved sample and written specifications as references for production checks

A harbour: reflecting the international trade that connects our work with yours.
Waves: carrying our wish to move forward steadily and build lasting relationships.
