Many customers ask us what the best tips for importing from China are. Since we offer import services, we want their operations to go as well as possible so that we can all do business. That is why we have decided to write this article with advice, which we are calling "7 tips to import from China".
Below are the tips or advice we give you:
1. Before importing, get to know the product you are going to import well. This way you will be able to give the supplier any specification you need.
2. Import Chinese products for which you already have potential customers. What sells is not just the price or the quality, but knowing how and to whom to sell.
3. If you do not know what to import from China, we recommend some Chinese products that sell well internationally. Check the most demanded Chinese products here.
4. Find a good supplier. Do not look only at the price but at the quality of the product and the service. If you do not know how to do this, put yourself in the hands of professional supplier sourcers.
5. Always verify your supplier before starting to work with them. If you intend to work with a factory, you must avoid buying from a middleman, and that can only be known by carrying out an inspection in person or sending someone to write a report for you.
6. Avoid paying via Western Union or by transfer to personal accounts. If you transfer money, make sure it is to a company account. There are many scams using this type of payment.
7. Be careful with logistics, do not leave it directly in the hands of the manufacturer. They know how to manufacture and sell, but they are completely unaware of what you need to ensure that your order does not get stuck in customs in the destination country. Use an import expert or a freight forwarder.
