If you sell blenders on Amazon, or sit upstream of someone who does, the most operationally useful fact about your category in May 2026 is not on Amazon. It is in US Customs bills of lading.
Two greenfield factories in Central Java, Indonesia — neither of which existed before 2020 — now act as the shared replenishment infrastructure for the two largest motorized-countertop-blender brands on Amazon: SharkNinja and NutriBullet. They also ship to Conair, Newell Brands, and De’Longhi America. The factories are subsidiaries of two Chinese ODMs that have been making small kitchen appliances for the US market for two and three decades respectively. None of this is hidden. It is in primary US government trade data that almost no Amazon analyst reads.
This is the first Category Stress Read. The format is simple: what the BSR data is showing, what the import data is showing, where the two converge or diverge, and what the convergence means for an operator sitting upstream of the Amazon channel. This first one focuses on countertop blenders.
The lead-lag reading between shipment cadence and Amazon BSR velocity previously given here has been withdrawn. This lead-lag claim is under methodology review because the analytical universe was not ratified. No replacement coefficient is currently approved.
On the demand side, search interest for “blender” on Google Trends is rising into mid-2026. On the inventory side, the lead-lag reading between shipment cadence and Amazon BSR velocity previously given here has been withdrawn. This lead-lag claim is under methodology review because the analytical universe was not ratified. No replacement coefficient is currently approved.
The two factories are PT Borine Technology Indonesia in Kendal Industrial Park, Central Java, and PT Donlim Technology Indonesia in Sayung, Demak — both Chinese-owned subsidiaries online since 2020-2023. PT Borine's top buyers are Conair, Capital Brands, and SharkNinja; PT Donlim's are SharkNinja, Newell Brands, and De'Longhi America.
So the question is: what is the sourcing structure? The two factories that matter for this category are PT Borine Technology Indonesia in Kendal Industrial Park, Central Java, and PT Donlim Technology Indonesia in the Jatengland Industrial Park in Sayung, Demak — roughly eighty kilometers apart. Both came online between 2020 and 2023. Both are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Chinese parent ODMs (Donlim corporate disclosure).
PT Borine has filed 652 US bills of lading between February 2023 and February 2026. Its top US buyers, by container count: Conair (635 containers), Capital Brands Distribution LLC (NutriBullet’s US importer) at 426 containers, and SharkNinja Operating LLC at 325 containers (ImportGenius — PT Borine Technology Indonesia). The product mix is power blenders, coffee makers, burr mill grinders, can openers, and citrus juicers. The Chinese parent is Ningbo Borine Electric Appliance Co., Ltd., established in 1995 in Beilun, Ningbo.
PT Donlim is smaller but more concentrated. SharkNinja is its number-one buyer (387 containers, over 4.5 million kilograms), followed by Newell Brands and De’Longhi America (ImportGenius — PT Donlim Technology Indonesia). The “Donlim” brand is the core self-owned label of Guangdong Xinbao Electrical Appliances Holdings Co., Ltd. (Donlim — About Us), a publicly listed Chinese kitchen-appliance maker on the Shenzhen exchange under ticker 002705.
This is the textbook shape of a China-plus-one capacity migration. But two features of this particular hub make the systems story more interesting than that label suggests, both visible in the public customs record.
The label hides two things. First, the Indonesian capacity took three to five years to build and cannot be quickly relocated, so any buffer-rebuild lead time runs in years, not quarters. Second, factories that look diversified at the factory level trace to Chinese parents, so one parent's shock hits both brands simultaneously.
The capacity stock took three to five years to build. Greenfield factory buildouts in Indonesian industrial parks are slow — land, permitting, construction, equipment commissioning, workforce training, customer-side product qualification. PT Borine started filing US bills of lading in 2023; PT Donlim shortly after (PT Donlim customs record). The throughput that is currently de-risking SharkNinja’s and NutriBullet’s supply lines from China tariff exposure is not something either brand can rapidly relocate again. If Indonesia exposure later becomes a problem — political, logistical, or otherwise — the buffer-rebuild lead time is measured in years, not quarters.
The brands look diversified at the factory level but are concentrated at the controlling-entity level. PT Borine traces to Ningbo Borine. PT Donlim traces to Guangdong Xinbao (Xinbao listed-company profile). If either parent has a financial, regulatory, or political shock, both NutriBullet and SharkNinja feel the consequence at the same time, because the Indonesian subsidiary’s order acceptance is gated by the Chinese parent’s order book.
There is one more layer. NutriBullet’s holding entity, Capital Brands Holdings Inc., was acquired by De’Longhi Group for $421 million in December 2020 ( Centre Lane Partners — acquisition close ). De’Longhi America Inc. also appears in the buyer lists of both Indonesian factories ( PT Donlim buyer list ).

De’Longhi America Inc. also appears in the buyer lists of both Indonesian factories (PT Donlim buyer list).
So the supplier-side overlap between SharkNinja and NutriBullet is not only a procurement coincidence. It reflects a buyer-side roll-up. NutriBullet, post-2020, is a De’Longhi-owned brand (acquisition announcement). De’Longhi has its own multi-decade ODM relationships with Chinese kitchen-appliance makers. The Central Java hub is, in part, the Indonesian throughput layer of a consolidating buyer.
That convergence has implications the Amazon BSR data does not yet show. If De’Longhi rationalises its supplier base across the merged NutriBullet and De’Longhi-branded portfolio, the rationalisation will show up first as a supplier-count change in customs data, not as a BSR move.
For motorized countertop blender operators in the US Amazon channel as of May 2026, the two US brands you most directly compete with now share a Central Java replenishment infrastructure controlled by two Chinese ODM parents (PT Borine, PT Donlim). Factory-level diversification is not controlling-entity-level diversification. Before reordering, check whether both suppliers roll up to the same Chinese parent.
For an operator who sells motorized countertop blenders into the US Amazon channel, or who sits anywhere upstream of one — sourcing manager, procurement lead, components supplier — the operationally useful read for this category in May 2026 is this. The two US brands you most directly compete with on Amazon are now sharing a Central Java replenishment infrastructure controlled by two Chinese ODM parents (PT Borine; PT Donlim). If you are one of those brands, the diversification you think you have at the factory level is not diversification at the controlling-entity level.
The question worth asking before the next reorder cycle is not whether your supplier is in Indonesia. It is whether your supplier and your competitor’s supplier roll up to the same Chinese parent two layers above (Xinbao group structure). That is the backup-supplier qualification question the import data is quietly pointing at.
For a prospective entrant reading this evidence, the current signal is caution. The supply-demand imbalance, factory concentration, and controlling-entity rollup described above are among the evidence threads that feed the blenders category read — where the synthesized verdict is stated.

This Category Stress Read draws on three sources: Amazon BSR data from Keepa, US Customs import-shipment records from ImportYeti and ImportGenius, and direct manufacturer-side proximity to motorized-appliance supply chains built over two decades of family involvement in motor manufacturing. Every claim cites a source you can verify yourself.
