SUPPLIER RISK & COMPLIANCE REPORT SUPPLIER RISK & COMPLIANCE REPORT DUCO supplier risk & compliance report United States | Amazon, Walmart, Shopify REPORT DECISION Do not proceed as a consumer-goods supplier. DUCO Robots is a verified, legitimate industrial collaborative robotics manufacturer, but its catalog contains no retail-ready consumer products for US e-commerce resale. Engage only if the buyer is pursuing commercial robotics (e.g., automated coffee workstations), warehouse automation, or a distribution/integration agreement. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY DUCO Robots (DUCO ROBOTS CO., LTD.) is an established Chinese industrial robotics manufacturer founded in 2014 as the Shanghai international headquarters of SIASUN Robot & Automation Co., Ltd. (SZSE: 300024). Its business-card contact, Li Xinran , uses the official corporate domain @ducorobots.com, supporting direct employment rather than third-party brokering; however, the contact is a domestic East China Sales Engineer with unverified authority to negotiate US export contracts. The headquarters address on the card matches official records. Legal identity is supported by registry data (USCC 9131011530155332X7, Legal Representative Li Fashe). Products include GCR/SCR cobots, dual-arm and explosion-proof robots, mobile manipulators, palletizing/welding workstations, an automated coffee workstation, and the BR-MR73A wheeled humanoid platform. Claims include CE, CR, SEMI-S2, NRTL/UL and ISO 9001 certifications, ±0.02 mm repeatability, and 3–30 kg payloads. External marketplace, price, trend and news research sources were unavailable, so no US retail pricing, demand or consumer-rating evidence exists. Reputation scanning returned 'unknown' (not malicious) for the .co.jp domain and contact email; WHOIS shows ducorobots.co.jp was registered 2024-11-06 to DUCO Robots Japan K.K., a young domain consistent with a new Japanese subsidiary. Buyer fit for consumer resale is poor; only commercial service robotics or industrial distribution use cases merit pursuit. RECOMMENDED NEXT ACTION Route all commercial inquiries through DUCO's official Global Marketing & Overseas Sales Center (marketing@ducorobots.com, +86-400-088-5288) rather than the domestic card contact. Request: (1) written confirmation of the authorized US export contact and Li Xinran's authority status, (2) UL 1740 / ANSI R15.06 and FCC documentation for target m…Read the complete 13-page English PDF →What remains a buyer decision
