Product Sourcing

Most importers start on Alibaba and end up talking to trading companies with a markup. We go to the manufacturers directly — in Yiwu, Shenzhen, Ningbo and Guangzhou — compare them side by side, and negotiate in Mandarin so you get factory-direct pricing.

Frequently asked

How long does it take to get a sourcing quote?

+

Typically 48 hours for standard products. Custom or engineered products can take 3–7 working days because factories need to cost tooling and materials.

Can you source products that are not on Alibaba?

+

Yes. A large share of Chinese factories only sell on 1688.com or offline through trade markets. Our Yiwu team sources from those channels directly.
