Is Sourcing in China then reselling on Amazon?
As you can see a lot of sellers did like this and got succeeded.
Some people were wondering: I designed a product and try to sell it on Amazon, and try to find a reliable supplier in China to make it, I also hope they can send the products directly to Amazon FBA (Using Amazon Fulfillment Service) to make a streamlined supply chain.
Actually, the process of sourcing in China is very simple, now there is a lot of company in the supply chain and you should ask them any questions you want at any time.
Where I can find a Reliable Supplier?
Option 1:
- Search the supplier in reliable B2B sites like Made-in-China.com, alibaba.com, or globalsources.com even Alibaba China wholesales market 1688.com, Yiwugo.com
Option 2:
- Ask from Sourcing companies in China.
Glossary of Technical Terms
- MOQ: Minimum Order Quantity: the lowest number of units that a supplier prepared to produce in one order.
- Private Label Product – A product produced by a manufacturer who will put your logo on the product and/or your design on the packaging. The same as “White Label Product”. Total NEW product with a new UPC label will allow you to have a unique product so nobody else can compete with it, also you are building your brand every time you sell a unit
- OEM –In normal usage with Chinese suppliers, it means the same as “Private Labelled”, ie with your own logo and/or packaging design. In theory, OEM stands for “Original Equipment Manufacturer”. Also, in theory, it refers to your own design and factory produced for you. Technically the alternative term for Private Labelling should be “ODM” but I’ve yet to find a Chinese supplier who uses that term. (Related: What Is the Difference Between The OEM Vs ODM Suppliers?)
- FREIGHT-you’ll need to understand what prices you get during the phase of looking for suppliers and negotiating. “Incoterms” are internationally agreed on freight terms, or you can choose to let the factory send to your FBA warehouse by air
Amazon FBA Inspection Services in China
It is important to try your best to get independent (3rd party) quality inspection and testing of your goods in China before they get shipped if you possibly can, which we call it Amazon FBA Inspection Service
Since one of the keys to quality inspection is the integrity of the inspection person or company, it’s by far the best to get a recommendation from trusted friends or colleagues. This is when being a member of a community of fellow Amazon Sellers is most useful. Also, look among your friends with corporate jobs – you may well find someone who deals with international buying, in which case, they’re very likely to deal with China frequently since China exports pretty much every type of product in huge quantities. If you’re using a freight forwarder or Customs Broker, ask them if they have such contacts of China inspection services-whom can provide services like supplier verification, quality control, pre-shipment inspection or full inspection, etc.
