Where can I find Chinese chemical suppliers?

Although it may seem that the financial benefits of working with suppliers in China might be waning, many importers can not find chemical suppliers who can honestly help them. In this way, people become very sensitive when sourcing from China.

Here I’ll share my deep insight experience on finding reliable chemical suppliers from China as below:

Internet Search: Google, Alibaba, Made in China etc.

That’s the fastest way to get the China supplier’s information. Whenever the need for finding information arises, the first source we go to is usually Google. The easiest way to find wholesale drop shippers on Google is by searching “[Product] + drop shipper.” Google is a fast way to find wholesale drop shipping companies, but it also comes with its own risks and downfalls. Notice how there are more than 1.6 million results? You have no idea how trustworthy any of these sources are. You’ll have to put each one of them through a strict vetting process.

The easiest and most cost-effective place to start a search for suppliers in China is on the Internet via search engines such as Bing or Google, and B2B sourcing platforms like Alibaba, Global Sources, and Made-in-China. Thousands of suppliers are listed on these sites, and you can streamline your search and increase the number of legitimate sources by filtering results for only those entries labeled as “gold member,” “verified supplier,” “onsite supplier,” or “accredited supplier.”

Trade Shows: The Canton Fair(Guangzhou), The East China Fair etc.

Trade shows are another way to find legitimate suppliers. By attending trade shows, you have the opportunity to talk to potential suppliers face to face about their companies, products, production capacity, quality-control procedures, and other key business areas. Such direct interaction can help you evaluate suppliers and verify their abilities.

Two trade shows in China are worth mentioning. The Canton Fair is the largest trade fair in China and is held twice a year in Guangzhou, located near Hong Kong in southern China. The Canton Fair attracts thousands of attendees with a huge variety of products. You need to know the guide to attending 2019 Canton Fair if you want to join it.

The East China Fair is the largest regional trade fair in China, and is held once a year in Shanghai. There are other regional trade fairs in China that are usually industry-specific. Search China Sourcing Fairs for specific industries.

Sourcing service provider: Agency, trading company etc.

If you want someone who can help you with the entire sourcing process from end-to-end, hire a sourcing service provider, which can provide a wide range of services: supplier identification, price negotiation, supply management, quality control management, logistics and shipment management, and other sourcing matters.A sourcing service provider can relieve you of the hassle of identifying and verifying suppliers. However, sourcing service providers charge certain fees for managing purchase transactions.

Grateful if my points will help you find chemical suppliers in China.
