In case you are looking for a company to import from China you have to take into account a number of fundamental factors to make sure you are selecting the right company. We will now list some of the most important features that an import consultancy from China to other countries should have:
– The company must have a physical office in China.
– It is advisable to have a storage space in the office itself or very close to it.
– For a complete service, you should ideally have a company in China and not only in Hong Kong. This is unusual but gives much greater flexibility.
– Must have both Western and Chinese staff to be able to communicate with customers and suppliers alike.
– Staff must speak several languages, at least English, Spanish and Chinese.
– An import consultancy from China must be transparent. If we are never allowed to talk to the supplier or forwarder directly, it is likely that the company is charging hidden commissions and we are not aware of it.
– The service must be well separated from the product, although sometimes part of the payment can be negotiated with a commission. Companies that work exclusively on commission should not be called consultancies but brokers or intermediaries.
– He does not work for free. The only companies willing to make arrangements and searches free of charge are those that have just started or are in great need of work. This is a sign of lack of professionalism and we should not place our trust in this type of company.
If you are looking for a China import consultancy that is reliable, quality, transparent, with service in English and all the above mentioned features, please contact us.
