- Lock in the category and first screen out the “identity tags”
Open 1688, first enter the category keyword (such as “Ladies’ T-shirt”), and on the result page, check the three tags “Super Factory”, “Powerful Merchant”, and “TrustPass Years ≥3 years”. Most merchants with the bull head logo are source factories. With the “in-depth factory inspection” report, the scale of the workshop and the number of equipment can be viewed online, which is equivalent to a remote on-site inspection.
II, look and compare three times to quickly eliminate middlemen
- Check the store profile: The main business category is single, and the product image style is uniform. It is usually a factory. If the product categories are diverse and the pictures are fancy, they are mostly traders.
- Check the minimum order quantity: Factory MOQ is generally 100 to 300 pieces, and traders can also ship 1 to 10 pieces.
- Check the buyer’s reviews: Focus on reading the key words “repurchase rate” and “on-time delivery”. Those with negative reviews mainly on quality or delivery time will be directly eliminated.
Iii. Horizontal Comparison, Collection + Monitoring
Add the intended factory to your “Favorites”, and then use the “Soaring Factory List” to compare the prices and delivery times of the same product horizontally. Initiate inquiries to the final 2 to 3 factories simultaneously, requesting the latest color cards and videos of in-stock inventory to identify the best partners.
