Entrepreneurs from all over the world buy Chinese goods due to the wide selection and low prices. Buying goods from China allows you to make a good profit when selling them in the UAE.
However, if you look for suppliers from China on your own, you run a high risk of encountering unscrupulous contractors and a host of problems related to negotiations, paperwork and returning products due to defects or differences from the description on the website. ASIA-WEST takes care of all issues related to the purchase and delivery of goods: from finding a reliable seller to transportation to the client’s warehouse.
Only working with an honest, responsible contractor ensures the timely receipt of quality goods that correspond to the photographs and the characteristics stated on the website.
There are several types of Chinese suppliers:
•
Major manufacturers. These are interested in regular purchases of large batches of goods, and you can also sign a contract with them for the manufacture of products with specific characteristics. However, many of them do not work directly with customers, and the language barrier can be a serious obstacle to negotiations.
•
Medium and small enterprises and workshops producing consumer goods, building materials, furniture, toys and accessories.
•
Large wholesalers. These purchase large quantities of goods from the manufacturer and sell them in pieces. You can work with them if you buy goods in large or medium wholesale quantities.
•
Traders. These sell medium and small batches of goods of various brands. They usually have a wide range of goods than that of one major manufacturer, but their prices may be higher. In addition, there is always a risk of fraud.
The best way is to visit specialized exhibitions regularly held in China, where manufacturers present their products. This allows you to see the goods ‘in person’, communicate directly with the supplier and discuss all the terms.
However, most entrepreneurs do not have the opportunity for a trip to China: this requires a significant investment of both time and money. In addition, the language barrier and cultural differences may become a serious obstacle to negotiations. Many Chinese people speak poor English.
Therefore, most often you have to rely on the internet. When using Chinese marketplaces, pay attention to the status of the seller, their rating, how long they have worked on the site and how many orders they have had. An important indicator is customer reviews with real photographs of the received goods.
But even if you find a supplier with a good reputation, this does not eliminate the problems associated with collecting documents, customs clearance and returning goods.
