The trials and tribulations of importing Electronics goods from China 

September 15th, 2006

The catch-cry is “Import from China” and the internet is awash with “reports” on how to do this. But before you put all the time and effort into trying to figure out how, there’s a couple of very important things to consider.

  • Have you already got serious sales channels in place to justify the volume required?
  • Have you got the financial capital to sustain the inventory required to prevent stock shortages between shipments?
  • Have you realised the sizeable chunk of time (ongoing) that is required to find reliable sources and forge relationships?
  • Are you prepared for the production and shipping delays, quality shortfalls (sometimes devastating to your business) which will inevitably occur? (you won’t hear much, or perhaps ANYTHING about this in the “how to” guides)

It all comes down to the volume you’re able to handle, the (current) profits you are making, and in the best scenario, whether therefore you can have someone on the ground in the China production workplace.

This is how all the BIG Western retailers work… They have dedicated buyers who are in China on a regular basis, or who are here permanently. And if big enough, they even have their own (contract or directly employed) people who will stand over the production line : anything from random checking, right to examining that EVERY item is up to the required standard.

Importing directly from China factories is not for everyone, so there’s a few “is this for you?” things for you to consider before you proceed…

If these tips have made you reconsider, or even stopped you in your tracks, there’s still a way. Find an agent who will arrange smaller shipments, yet can still provide very good pricing. If they can check the quality level of the goods as well, then you’ve got it in a nutshell.
