About this listen
An insider reveals what can - and does - go wrong when companies shift production to China.
In this entertaining behind-the-scenes account, Paul Midler tells us all that is wrong with our effort to shift manufacturing to China. Now updated and expanded, Poorly Made in China reveals industry secrets, including the dangerous practice of quality fade - the deliberate and secret habit of Chinese manufacturers to widen profit margins through the reduction of quality inputs. US importers don’t stand a chance, Midler explains, against savvy Chinese suppliers who feel they have little to lose by placing consumer safety at risk for the sake of greater profit. This is a lively and impassioned personal account, a collection of true stories, told by an American who has worked in the country for close to two decades. Poorly Made in China touches on a number of issues that affect us all.

I was enthralled by Paul's narrative style...
As a narrator I loved his asmr tones as well! But the book is in my top 10 list. One of the mamy off chance, unheard of non-fictional that I have tried but enjoyed. So much I listened 5 years later (now) as China is becoming more and more in the world spotlight.
