Sourcing strategy

Where to find right manufacturer

  • 40% from1688.com where we can find most real manufacturers.
  • 20% from Alibaba.com which is well known by everyone.
  • 20% from our working suppliers based on past 10 years experience.
  • 10% from other platforms like Yiwugo, Taobao, JD and more.
All of them we have successful case to share.

Negotiation key points

  • Show them our background and business plan(Can be little exaggerating) make sure they can respect us and pay more attention on us instead of asking price directly.
  • Before negotiation we need to do market research to know the approximately market price make sure our target won’t let them feel offensive.
  • Always show them that we are going to pay the next mins(I will request them to make invoice to pay, even if we are not ready to buy)
