About us

Jason holds a Masters of International Management degree.  Jason's experience includes semi-conductor production planning, launching several Subway franchises in China, assistance with a US-China factory joint venture in Suzhou, China.

Although Source and Solve has several China based consultants Jason is the initial and primary point of contact for all Source and Solve clients. Jason's experience allows him to see the world through the unique lens of both an entrepreneurial business owner and as someone who has put in the effort to understand how Chinese culture affects business interactions.

Consultations are free and so is our sourcing!

We have a unique value proposition. We only earn money if you save money.  Our process is simple; tell us what you would like us to source and the best price you have been quoted and our team will determine if we can beat that price. If we can save you money then we split the savings with you. You never pay a dime for our services.
