Procurement expertise. Global networks. Nordic reliability.

20+
Years of Experience

With over 20 years of hands-on experience in international procurement, we know what it takes to make sourcing work across cultures, borders, and business models.

Cao Consulting helps businesses source smarter — by connecting them with reliable suppliers and service providers in China and Europe.

We’re based in Sweden, but our reach is global. We combine Nordic business values — transparency, long-term thinking, and quality — with deep local networks and cultural understanding in key manufacturing hubs.

The people behind Cao Consulting

A cross-border team with deep sourcing expertise and operational know-how.

Cao Consulting is powered by a skilled international team — combining local presence in Sweden with on-the-ground capabilities in China.

In Sweden,

The company is represented by our CEO and Technical Director, working closely with clients to align sourcing solutions with business needs, quality requirements, and long-term goals.

Our Business Development Manager plays a key role in identifying new opportunities, building strategic partnerships, and helping clients explore new markets, including Asia and Europe.

Our Social Media Manager ensures that our brand stays visible and relevant, building trust and engagement across key digital platforms through consistent and targeted communication.

This structure allows us to deliver fast, informed, and cost-efficient sourcing - with full visibility and accountability from factory floor to final delivery.

In China,

Our sourcing operations are driven by a four-person team consisting of a Supply Chain Manager, Logistics Manager, Business Development Manager, and Back Office Manager. Together, they ensure direct supplier access, real-time coordination, and full control over every stage of the procurement process.
