Most companies you find at Alibaba would brag that they are constantly «cooperating» with the largest wholesale businesses from all over the world. Some can even go as far as sending photos of the boxes of these customers from some warehouses to prove their words. Do not believe that blindly! After all, they could have taken these pictures at warehouses of other enterprises. In order to check information they provided you with, ask them to send some scans of contracts that were stamped by those companies.

What risks can occur when buying from China?

Risks when importing work gloves wholesale from China may arise both in China and in Russia. Let’s look at them:

Risks in China

The are risks when importing working gloves wholesale from China that can arise both in China and in country of destination.

Let’s consider them one by one:

• Failure to deliver goods

Apparentely only a very evil supplier can get money and run away, unfortunately, you can come across some of them in the Internet, Alibaba is no exception. Such companies attract customers with low costs of working gloves, considerably lower than the market price. To avoid unpleasant experience of non, you need to make sure that supplier is trustworthy. Therefore, we recommend to cooperate only with reliable manufacturers.

• Goods of poor quality or insufficient quantity.

Even when you buy directly from the factory there is always a risk that to reduce the cost of production supplier may decide to save on overall weight or on  materials from which working gloves are made. To avoid negative consequences we recommend to check the quality of working gloves before loading.

• Delay of shipment.

Sadly, delays of shipment is a weak point of most Chinese suppliers. It would be wise especially when ordering goods in high season to add a week or two to the estimated delivery time. To avoid lead time delays you have to contact the manufactore frequently and to remind them of the importance of delivery on time.

Risks that may occur in country of destination.

• The cost of the services of customs broker, delivery or customs clearance services starts to rise after container leaves the port in China.

It happens from time to time that the customs broker deliberately gives low rates to attract clients in the beginning, so you agree to work with them, the goods are loaded and at this point  costoms broker suddenly tells you that the rates have risen (customs authorities have changed, new rules, railway fees have been increased and many other reason that broker can tell you). In order to avoid these miscalculations, you’d better to cooperate with an adequate customs broker.

• Delays of shipment locally.

This is also quite common. If shipping by railway for example, two 20 feet containers are shipped on one platform, so if you order one 20 feet container, it will have to stay at the station  untill second appears to make a pair. If the customs broker has few shipments in your direction, then delays may occur. This can be avoided by discussing the possibility of delaycand responsibilities in advance.

• Adjustment of customs value.

Adjustment of customs value is a headache to importers. Adjustment of customs value can occur if the customs broker has little experience in customs clearance. It is better when customs broker is responsible for the risks of the adjustment of customs value.
