8 Main Chinese Wholesale Websites
If you can’t come to China and source products in these physical markets, you can find Chinese suppliers online. One of the common ways is searching for Chinese B2B platforms. You can also find professional Chinese factories or trading companies and buy at competitive prices.
In the following, I’ll list 8 common Chinese wholesale websites for your reference.
Alibaba
Alibaba is the largest online wholesale marketplace in the world. Its logistics has covered more than 200 countries and regions. Besides, you can find both factories and trading companies on it. Wholesaling from Alibaba has been the preferred choice for many importers. But if you’re a newbie, it’s key to know some common fraud for safer buying.
Jingsourcing
Jingsourcing is a leading sourcing agent in Yiwu, China. It is located near the largest wholesale market -Yiwu International Trade City. I have introduced this market above.
As a professional sourcing agent, Jingsourcing can provide different types of factories for you to choose from. After comparison, you can find the most suitable suppliers based on the quality you want and your budget.
If you want to wholesale or customize products from China, you can contact us directly. Our agents can help you to find various Chinese suppliers.
Made in China & Global Sources
Made in China and Global Sources have many things in common so I introduce them together. The suppliers on the websites are generally factories and large trading companies. Usually, the MOQ is high, maybe around 100 pieces or more.
Meanwhile, the MOQ also depends on the product categories. That is to say, you may also buy less than 100 pieces. For example, if you want to buy a large machine, the MOQ will be lower.
DHgate
Different from Alibaba, Made in China, and Global Sources, DHgate focuses on small wholesale. But there are not only small trading companies on DHgate. You can still find factories and different scales of trading companies.
AliExpress
AliExpress is an online retail website based in China. However, you can also wholesale products from it and there is no MOQ required. The suppliers on AliExpress include factories with both small and large scales.
But notice, if you want to buy dozens of products, you should negotiate with the suppliers to get a quote rather than add to the shopping cart directly. Additionally, you can make a comparison with DHgate, and choose the cheaper one to order.
Yiwugo
Yiwugo is the official website of Yiwu markets, including Yiwu International Trade City, Huangyuan Clothing Market, Material Market, etc. There are 75000 online stores of those booths in the Yiwu markets.
If you want to come to Yiwu and but locally, you can also check these stores and find the address on Yiwugo in advance.
1688
1688 is a domestic wholesale website for Chinese people. You can also buy bulk from 1688 overseas, but maybe it’s a bit inconvenient. If you want to have a try, you should make preparations beforehand.
FAQs About China Wholesale Markets
1. How to find suppliers in the China wholesale markets?
You can find thousands of suppliers online. Likewise, there are hundreds or thousands of wholesale suppliers in each wholesale market. As a result, you‘d better make preparations for your sourcing tour to save your time.
Before exploring the market locally, you can check the website of the market to find the suppliers’ information and location inside the market, or you can search for the market on Google to get some information. After that, you can visit the market, find the suppliers, check the sample and inquire about the prices.
Besides, that’s a lot of work to find a reliable supplier from so many choices. But you’d better compare as many suppliers as possible. Only then can you find the best price.
2. Can I bargain with wholesale suppliers in China markets?
Certainly yes. You should negotiate the prices with wholesale suppliers to increase your profit as much as possible. But if you’re new to your business, or have no idea about the general cost of the product, it may be hard to discuss the prices.
After all, there are so many similar suppliers in the same product category. They may offer different prices. When it comes to the same products, some suppliers may offer $3 to you, others may $3.5 or higher.
Thus, you can ask one supplier to get an approximate price. Then, you can visit as many suppliers as possible to have a detailed comparison.
Besides, don’t forget to check the quality of the products. Once you think the quality is as good as you’ve expected, you can negotiate with the suppliers for a lower price.
Moreover, the price also depends on the quantity of your order. If you just want to buy one for your personal use or buy several pieces, the price will definitely be higher. But if you have more quantity requirements or need to customize the products, then you can request a lower price from the supplier.
3. How can I overcome the language barrier?
In general, the Chinese suppliers in the China wholesale markets can only understand a little basic English or even can’t understand any. Sometimes, you need to use gestures to help your discussion.
If you don’t know Chinese, you’d better find a translator or a sourcing agent to help you communicate with the suppliers. They will help your communication go smoothly. And you can discuss with the suppliers about your ideas and the details about the products.
To clarify, hiring a translator usually costs about 200-500 RMB per day (30-80 USD). The translator will mainly help you overcome the language barrier, but they cannot help you source the products.
In contrast, a sourcing agent can help you communicate with the suppliers and also help you source the products, arrange samples and shipments. Also, the cost will be lower.
If you want to visit Yiwu and need a Yiwu sourcing agent, you can reach us, and our sourcing specialists will contact you quickly.
4. Are suppliers in China wholesale markets all factories?
Not at all. Like suppliers on the B2B online platforms, suppliers in the wholesale markets can be factories, trading companies, wholesalers, distributors in the wholesale markets. In addition, many people want to find a factory to get cheaper products. But will a factory offer a lower price than a trading company?
Actually, this is not always true. Some suppliers may tell you that they’re a factory. However, that’s not the truth. On the contrary, you can also get lower prices from some trading companies. If you want to verify the supplier is a factory or a trading company, you can seek help from a sourcing agent like Jingsourcing.
5. What should I do before visiting these China wholesale markets?
Only by ensuring what type of products you need can you make plans. After you have a clear target of the products, you can choose the markets focusing on those kinds of products.
Generally, the scales of China wholesale markets are quite large, especially in Yiwu and Guangzhou. If you have no plan beforehand, you tend to waste a lot of time looking for the locations or even get lost.
Besides, after you select the market or city you want to visit, you should also make plans for transportation and accommodation. As for the accommodation, you can choose the hotels close to the markets you want to visit. It’s more convenient for you to go out.
6. How to get to these China wholesale markets from overseas?
There are international flights to Shanghai, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Shenzhen directly. If you want to get to Shanghai, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, or Shenzhen wholesale markets, you can fly to the cities directly. And then you can go to the markets by taxi, bus, subway, etc.
If you want to visit Yiwu wholesale markets, there is no international flight arriving in Yiwu. Thus, you can choose to arrive in the 4 cities above and then transfer to Yiwu by plane, train, or bus. If you transit in Hangzhou or Shanghai, you can take the railway or a bus. In addition, if you transit in Guangzhou or Shenzhen, it’s faster and more convenient to take a plane.
