Wondering how importing actually works?
Here’s the full process — broken down from factory to warehouse in under 60 seconds:
1. Find a factory — usually through Alibaba, Global Sources, or referrals
2. Place a trial order — to test quality, communication, and timing
3. Pay a deposit (usually 30%) — to start production
4. Confirm shipping method — air or sea, while the product is being made
5. Pay the remaining 70% once production is done
6. Freight forwarder handles the rest — including customs, documentation, and delivery
7. Product arrives at your warehouse or retail space
It’s not about being perfect — it’s about following the right process.
