About Sunny Shen – China-Based Consultant & Interpreter Helping Western Companies work Confidently and Efficiently with Chinese Suppliers and Partners | Since 2015
Hi, I’m Sunny — a native Mandarin speaker fluent in English, based in China.
With over a decade of real-world experience in Chinese-Western business, I help Western companies work confidently with Chinese suppliers and partners, even when challenges arise.
I began my career in 2012 as an international salesperson handling European and American markets, and since 2015, I’ve worked as a consultant and interpreter supporting clients in sourcing, supplier management, and partnership projects on-the-ground in China.
Over the past decade, I’ve collaborated with clients and colleagues from 15 countries — including Austria, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the Netherlands, Pakistan, Singapore, Sweden, the United States, Uruguay, and China — building lasting business relationships and achieving high client satisfaction.
Clients see me as their trusted local partner in China, helping them bridge communication, cultural, and operational gaps, ensuring that projects stay on track despite obstacles.
Whether you’re navigating a new project with Chinese suppliers or managing long-term partnerships, I provide hands-on support and local insight to help you bridge the gap between expectations and realities, ensuring smooth collaboration and concrete results on the ground in China.
How I Can Help You Work Confidently with China
Managing China-facing projects from afar can be challenging for Western businesses, especially when issues arise. I offer practical advisory and hands-on support in China to help you:
• Work effectively with suppliers who truly align with your goals
• Avoid miscommunications that cause delays or costly issues
• Resolve issues before they escalate
While I typically work independently helping my clients resolve China-related challenges, I have a business professional network in China that I can tap into for larger projects. For instance, I cooperate with the talented China-based Finnish creative director, photographer, filmmaker, and drone operator Tuomas Harjumaaskola, for high-quality imagery across Asia.
