CHAN ISSUE

Independent sourcing intelligence for eyewear buyers.

EDITORIAL POLICY

Seen, said, and still open.

CHAN ISSUE reports for professional eyewear buyers. A page should make it possible to tell what Jay saw, what a supplier said, and what has not been checked. The longer account of that method is on About.

LABELS

Observation What was seen or documented on a visit, with the limit of that view stated. A display sample is not a factory audit.
Supplier statement What a supplier said, attributed and dated, including the conditions attached to a price, an MOQ, or a lead time.
Not yet verified A claim that still needs documents, a sample, or another visit. It is not treated as established.

LIMITS

Jay founded and edits CHAN ISSUE. He has eyewear manufacturing and export experience. He does not own a factory or an affiliated factory.

A supplier named in a report is not endorsed. Commercial sourcing work, if any, is separate from the publication, and a relevant commercial relationship is disclosed. Buying a report or joining the reading list is not a request to be represented, and it does not authorise passing your details to a supplier.

Corrections and complaints about a published page can be sent to hello@chanissue.press.
