My Personal Journey

What started as a personal challenge to furnish my home more affordably quickly became a journey that changed everything. Frustrated by the high cost of furniture in the UK, I decided to go straight to the source — travelling to China to explore the factories and furniture markets where many global brands manufacture their products.

By sourcing directly from manufacturers, I was able to fully furnish my home for a fraction of the expected cost, while gaining first-hand insight into how the furniture supply chain really works. I navigated everything from vendor selection and quality control to shipping, customs, duties and delivery — learning the realities, risks and hidden costs that most consumers never see.

That experience went viral online and was featured in national media, but more importantly, it revealed a huge knowledge gap. Many people love the idea of sourcing from China but feel overwhelmed by where to start, who to trust, and how to ship safely.

Bekker Logistics was created to bridge that gap — turning lived experience into a fully managed, transparent service that makes sourcing and shipping from China simple, secure and stress-free.
