If we directly order from a supplier in China. Is it possible, to print our label on the product & packing?    
Yes, if you order directly from the factory its possible. So you will be able to have your own  trade-mark.


 When we order from the same manufacturer in China, who works for most  famous  trade-marks,
 the
quality is not the same. Why?  

 China's main problem. The Chinese have no quality-vision nor quality-control. Even when they say they have,
 it doesn't work well. Because of this, the most manufacturers can't keep their quality guidelines. Once they
 produce high, once low quality. And because they don't want to bear the costs of the defective products, they
 try to deliver  to the buyer. Doesn't matter how big the manufacturer is, we are confrontated with this problem
 again and again. The only one solution is to cooperate with an buying agent, like the big import companies do.

  
 
Can anyone order any quantity of products in China?                  

 Yes, you are able to order small quantities. Even, if the your order doesn't fill one container,  it is possible to
 get it  shipped  with partial-freight  container. It is also possible to ship goods,  from 3-4 different suppliers,
 in the same container.

 

 We could not order anything on the fair in China. We could not decide and trust.  What shall we do?   

 There are two ways to minimize your risks. You come to China, visit all manufacturer and their production-sites,  control yourself the sequence and inspect  your order. Or you cooperate with  an buying agency, like the most
 big European Import companies do.
 

 Why there is a mistrust problem in trading with China?

 Because, the Chinese are a short time in international trade and they want make fast money, they show big
 differences to the western trading mentality. The biggest problem appears in quality. With their attitude:

 ''what's the point? it works also this way''
,  it happens often, that they produce  lower quality and try to deliver to
  the buyer. What of course, for them a small detail is, is for the buyers
business very important.
  Advice:
Cooperate with an buying agent. You will not risk your money and
and you may sleep much better.
 

 The imported goods from China have problems. What now?

 You have it much easier if you cooperate with an buying agent. The main task of agents, is to solve problems,
 which may appear between you and your supplier, for your advantage. If you don't cooperate with an agent, the
 best way is to fly to China and solve the problem on the spot. Or you send the goods back and induce
 receiving accurate ones.
 

 Are Chinese products low-grade?

 It is possible to get every grade in China. Very high-grade, but also low-grade. In fact, many big foreign
 companies order in China. For the most products are 2-3 grades of quality available. The differences are
 reflected to the prices. Frankly, the Chinese products are not low-grade, but if you  wish, you may reduce
 the production costs, to get a lower quotation.
 

 How we get in China, the quality we want with best conditions?

 The most accurate way is, to send a sample and/or the specifications of the product, to the manufacturers
 and order them, to make a sample for you. If you have problems to get in contact  with some manufacturer
 or can't communicate with them, you should cooperate with an buying agent.

 

 How do the big companies buy in China and how they assure the constancy of the quality?

 Most of these companies cooperate with buying agents. In addition, they send their controlling-team to
 China and so they get double security. That why they have constancy of quality and they can trade their
 goods worldwide.
 

 We buy in China already, but we have problems with the constancy of quality. What must  we do?

 There are two ways. You come to China, watch the process during the production and inspect your goods
 on the acceptance date. Or you engage our company as an buying agent, you have minimum risk and you
 get the constancy of your quality.
 

 When we buy from China, have we to come often to China?

 No, you don't need to come often, if you have a good team in China, which does the work for you. But keep
 in mind, that the beginning phase of a first order, mostly works slower.

 

 In which city of China can we buy what we want?

 There are some cities in China, which are market leading in some certain products. But it is also possible,
 that a product is produced in more cities. For example, is for the ''same'' item, in one city the quotation lower,
 but the quality too. While in another city the quotations are higher, but  manufacturer have better quality and
 better product-range.
 

 We don't speak Chinese. How we get to our destination, when we arrive in China?

 On request, our company will make the whole Organization, from arriving till departure. Hotel reservations,
 domestic flight tickets, English-Chinese translator and assistance for your negotiations.
 

 Do the Chinese speak English?

 Only the staff of export-departments of the manufacturers, speaks English. But the number of  people,
 who really understands what you want, is very limited. Even if it looks, that they understand, they don't indeed.
 In fact of the general Chinese culture, they do like they understand and agree to you. You are satisfied that
 they understand and accepted what you wanted. But after a certain time, it  exposes not to be and they
 produced something different, from what you really wanted. Therefore, it is very important, for ordering and
 specially signing contracts, to cooperate with an buying agent. Our knowledge of their culture and nature, will
 simplify the most cases. If you have been once in China, you will understand, what we mean.
 

 We have never imported before. How we manage the customs formalities? 

 
Get in contact with your customs office and get information about the regulations. Before you import any
 product, you should be sure of the customs regulations of your country. Otherwise could be that  your efforts
 were for nothing.
 

 Who will manage the shipping of the goods?

 If you get in touch with a shipping company or agent, you can get all information and quotations.
 Or we get for you in touch with our shipping partners and send you a cost estimate. If you agree we also
 do the inspection, of loading your goods.
 

 We buy from different manufacturers in China. We must send and track many advance payments.
 Is it
possible to do our whole import over one company?

 Yes, it is possible. Even you buy from different suppliers, you are able to do your whole import from one
 company in China. Our company offers this service.
 

  What is the advantage processing our whole import over one company?

 First of all, you will save the high money transfer fees for all these suppliers. Second, because this export
 company will sign the contracts with your suppliers according to the Chinese laws, in cases of complications,
 it will be easier to defend your rights. And you would save the fees, for the letters of credit, for all these suppliers,
 cause you would need only one L/C for the export company in China.

 

 Why the participants on fairs in China mostly are trading companies and not manufacturers.
 
How we can get in touch with the manufacturers?

 The manufacturers in China prefer to do their exports over trading companies. Reason is the tax regulation
 and the wish to be more focused on their production. In addition, only manufacturers with export license are
 allowed to take part on fairs and most of them don't have this license. Therefore  most of the participants are
 trading companies with export licences. But, if you want to get in touch, directly with the manufacturers, our
 company can help you. Our sourcing department will find them in a short time, get the information and
 quotations for you. And when you agree, we will bring you directly  in touch with them.
