China is a key source of goods for many businesses around the world. However, purchasing directly from Chinese suppliers without professional support can lead to serious problems.
Product and low quality problem
One of the most common mistakes is insufficient quality control of the product. By purchasing products without prior inspection, you risk getting:
- A product that meets the stated specifications.
- Products with defects that cannot be detected remotely.
- Non-compliance with quality standards that may affect your reputation in the market.
Fraud and unscrupulous suppliers
Purchasing without intermediaries also carries the risk of becoming a victim of fraud. Problems include:
- Prepayment, after which the supplier disappears.
- Failure to deliver goods or delivery of the wrong product that was ordered.
- Overpricing due to lack of competition or market knowledge.
Misunderstanding of requirements for certificates and documents
It is very important to have all the necessary documents for international trade, especially if you plan to sell goods abroad. Without these documents, you may face:
- Customs delays.
- Fines or confiscation of cargo.
- Inability to certify goods for sale.
Bad price and extra costs
Without experience in the Chinese market, it is easy to overpay for products. This may be due to:
- Misunderstanding the real cost of the product.
- Inability to negotiate favorable terms with the supplier.
- Neglecting logistics, customs and tax costs.
