Dealing with Chinese suppliers is a bit more time consuming and complicated than it might first seem. Negotiations might be a bit complicated especially for an overseas company.
Many times you might encounter these difficulties when trying to contact a Chinese Factory:
- language barriers;
- communication problems;
- culture differences;
- slow price quotations;
- no transparency;
- supplier changing terms as they please;
- slow communication;
- receiving incomplete and not easy to understand quotations;
- slow answers to your questions;
- suppliers are difficult to reach by different contact methods
Many times the suppliers you find on the internet might not actually be a real factory. You might be surprised that the supplier you have been corresponding for weeks might actually be a person or more sitting in an office and operating as a trading company or maybe just middle men.
In many cases the factories might not even have manufactured the products they are displaying on their website, and just claim they are manufacturing some products just to get an order. Many times they will promise anything to you, just to get your deposit to get an order started, and they think about the technical issues only after getting the order started.
Why is the business mentality like this in China? Because Chinese Suppliers know the fact that only 5 percent of the customers will actually come to China to check their supplier before placing an order.

Sources we usually find suppliers from are reliable and are not really accessible for companies outside of China. We find Chinese suppliers from:

- Chinese government economic publications and databases;
- Chinese government organized trading events;
- Chinese Territorial Chamber of Commerce;
- Different relationships;

- Or many times we might have already exported and dealt with companies manufacturing the products you are looking for.
