About Maulik
Maulik Shah founded We Do Import in 2006, after seeing how many Indian businesses were getting burned trying to import from China without the right guidance — unreliable suppliers, missed compliance requirements, and shipments that stalled at customs for reasons nobody explained clearly.
Two decades later, that's still the problem he's focused on solving. Under his leadership, We Do Import has helped 1,000+ businesses source and import from China, handling 15,000+ shipments across product categories ranging from electronics and furniture to toys, construction materials, and industrial machinery.
His experience spans the full import lifecycle — supplier sourcing and factory verification, price negotiation, quality inspection, customs compliance, and logistics — built through direct, hands-on work with factories across Guangzhou, Yiwu, Shenzhen, and beyond, not just from behind a desk in India.
What Maulik Shah Focuses On
Supplier verification and factory vetting — separating real manufacturers from trading companies and shell operations
Import compliance — BIS, ISI, WPC, and the certification landmines that catch most first-time importers off guard
Quality control systems — building inspection processes that catch defects before they leave the factory, not after they clear Indian customs
Customs clearance and logistics — the practical, on-the-ground realities of getting goods from a Chinese factory to an Indian warehouse without unnecessary delays or costs
