Our Process

How We Support Distributors & Resellers

01

Understand Your Requirements

Tell us what you're currently selling or looking to add.

  • Product photos
  • Product links
  • Existing supplier information
  • Product specifications
  • Target quantity
  • Target price
  • Target market
  • Packaging requirements

If you're replacing an existing supplier, you can provide current product information for comparison.

02

Find & Compare Suppliers

We research suitable Chinese suppliers.

  • Manufacturers
  • Wholesale suppliers
  • Yiwu suppliers
  • Specialized factories

We compare suppliers based on more than price:

  • Product quality
  • MOQ
  • Production capability
  • Lead time
  • Customization
  • Packaging
  • Communication
  • Pricing
03

Negotiate Purchasing Terms

Purchasing terms can have a major impact on margins.

  • Unit price
  • MOQ
  • Quantity breaks
  • Packaging
  • Payment terms
  • Production lead time
  • Customization
  • Reorder terms

As order volume grows, purchasing terms can also be reviewed.

04

Samples & Product Evaluation

Before committing to larger quantities.

  • Samples
  • Product comparisons
  • Specification checks
  • Packaging evaluation
  • Customization samples
05

Manage Production

After an order is placed.

  • Production status
  • Quantity
  • Specifications
  • Packaging
  • Customization
  • Expected completion date

If an issue occurs, our China-based team can communicate with the supplier locally.

06

Quality Control

For repeat or higher-volume orders, consistency matters.

  • Quantity
  • Product specifications
  • Appearance
  • Workmanship
  • Functionality
  • Packaging
  • Labels

Supply Chain Strategy

Build a Multi-Supplier Supply Chain

Relying on a single supplier for every product isn't always practical. Different suppliers may be better suited for different products.

Instead of:

One Supplier → Everything

You can build:

Product A → Supplier A
Product B → Supplier B
Product C → Supplier C
Product D → Supplier D
One China Sourcing Team → Consolidation & Shipment

This approach can give you more flexibility when expanding your product range.

Alternative Suppliers

Supplier Replacement & New Product Sourcing

Already have suppliers but looking for better alternatives?

We can help research additional Chinese suppliers for:

  • Lower pricing
  • Better MOQ
  • Different specifications
  • Improved quality
  • New products
  • Backup suppliers

Having alternative suppliers can also reduce dependence on a single source.

Recurring Orders

Support for Repeat Orders

A distributor's sourcing needs don't end after the first shipment.

Cost Analysis

Help Protect Your Distribution Margins

Your purchasing cost affects your final margin. But the lowest unit price isn't always the lowest total cost.

💰

Product Cost

Supplier unit price and quantity.

📦

MOQ

How much inventory you need to purchase.

📦

Packaging

Standard or customized packaging.

🛡

Quality

Potential costs caused by defects or inconsistent production.

🚡

Shipping

Freight and consolidation considerations.

🤝

Supplier Reliability

Potential delays and communication problems.

The goal is to evaluate the overall sourcing economics rather than simply chasing the lowest quotation.

Beyond Sourcing

Private Label & Yiwu Sourcing

🏷

Private Label for Distributors

If you want to create a differentiated product line, private labeling can help you build your own brand.

Customization may include:

  • Logo
  • Packaging
  • Labels
  • Colors
  • Materials
  • Product specifications
  • Product sets

This can help distributors move from simply reselling products toward developing their own branded product range.

  • Multiple product categories
  • Small and medium quantities
  • General merchandise
  • Gifts
  • Accessories
  • Seasonal products
