Finding the right manufacturer is always a difficult process. As you know, there are a huge number of different factories and factories around the world. How can you find a supplier who will be able to provide you with the required product at an affordable price?
Instructions
Step 1
Determine which product you want to order. To do this, use one of the search systems for goods by manufacturer on the Internet (for example, suppliers of Chinese products can be found on Alibaba, Global Sources, Baidu, EC21, Made-in-China). To easily find information in these free catalogs, you need to know English well.
Step 2
Formulate clear requirements for the product and, on the basis of them, start searching for a suitable supplier, comparing it with your wishes. Make sure that the manufacturer you have chosen is a company capable of solving any issue, including prepayment of the ordered product and its delivery. Therefore, it is better to first find out the maximum about the manufacturer and only then conclude an agreement with him.
Step 3
Contact the manufacturer and order a catalog containing product advertisements and descriptions, ask all the basic questions you are interested in by phone. Find out what the supplier is like: a trading company or a factory, what are its production capacities, what kind of profiles does the company operate in, what quantity of goods it produces, with whom it cooperates, whether it supplies goods to Russia.
Step 4
Clarify how the manufacturer works with customers, what is the area of the enterprise and how many workers are engaged in production. Request samples of the main documents of this manufacturer, including registration certificate, trade license and others. These key points will help you better understand who you will partner with in the future and will be able to compare which manufacturer is best for you. And never make an advance payment for an item without reviewing the proposed product sample.
Step 5
Ask for advice from your acquaintances who have experience in choosing and buying such equipment. Let them help you negotiate with major manufacturers and arrange supplies.
