1. Choose the right platform or channel: International buyers can choose to find suppliers on professional procurement platforms (such as Alibaba, Global Sources, Made in China, etc.). These platforms can provide a large amount of supplier information and product information, and many suppliers have passed the certification and audit of the platform, which is relatively reliable;
2. Screen suppliers according to procurement requirements: Screen qualified suppliers according to their own procurement requirements. Can be screened according to product variety, specification, quality standard, place of origin, output, etc.;
3. Communicate with suppliers: Communicate with suppliers to understand specific details such as product information, prices, delivery dates, and payment methods, and at the same time inquire about their production capacity, relevant qualifications, and certifications to determine whether they can meet their own procurement needs ;
4. Investigate suppliers: If the purchase volume is large, you can conduct on-site inspections of suppliers to understand their production equipment, production capacity, quality management system, credit status, after-sales service, etc., and make full preparations for procurement.
In short, international buyers need to invest a lot of time and energy to find suppliers with low prices and reliable product quality. In the process of investigation, communication, and inspection, we must be cautious, pay attention to details, and pay attention to risk control.
