You’ve also found lists of Chinese suppliers on the Internet and wondered
Are they reliable?
If you get to the end of this article, you will understand why you should be very careful with these lists.
Most of the lists found on the Internet, in many websites, are sometimes generated by people who offer unreliable suppliers to appear in a list of “reliable suppliers”, increase their ratings and positive comments, in exchange for money. Also, if you pay attention, most of these lists do not indicate the source from which the information was extracted or the parameters used to prepare them. The same happens with the documentation that is presented on websites, which at first glance seems to be true, but sometimes they are not, many of these documents are forged and very skillfully made to look real.
Scams are a fact of life, and this is how they do it.
It should also be noted that what may be a good supplier for an importer in Argentina may not necessarily be a good supplier for an importer in Peru, Costa Rica or Paraguay, because there are infinite types of customers with different requirements, needs and objectives. The supplier and the products must be adapted to them.
Knowing this, you, importer… would you trust a list of suppliers on the internet? Would you trust a list of suppliers that appears on the internet? Be very careful!
Relax, you are not alone in this fear, and there is a way to operate with security and peace of mind. Reliable, serious and experienced suppliers, if any. You must find them, and here is the solution.
What you need is a company that can give you security when carrying out this type of operations, accompanying you throughout the import process, taking your project in a personalized way and tailored to your requirements and needs.
What steps should I follow to make my import successful?
As we well know, the first step is to look for a supplier, and as we now also know and better than before, we cannot trust just any supplier we find on any website, so at when choosing a Chinese supplier, this is what you have to take into account:
- Check your presence on social networks
- Ask for real photos and videos of the factory
- Check if your website is in English and Chinese.
- Presence on e-commerce sites
Check the payment method: Here, again, be very careful, if the supplier only accepts payment by Western Union or only by bank transfer to an account belonging to an individual, then there is a high probability that he intends to scam you.
With the help of a specialized company, carry out a telematic verification of suppliers: you must make sure that the supplier’s business license, export license and bank accounts are true and that the information contained in the documents match.
