Cargo Collect

To many foreign buyers who come to Yiwu to purchase products, one of the most concerned questions is how to collect cargo on time before shipping and run quality control properly in Yiwu. Obviously, buyers can’t stay in Yiwu all the time and wait till suppliers deliver products. Therefore, finding a professional China sourcing agent in Yiwu is the best common way to do.

Quality Control In 6 Aspects

1. Material

When it comes to quality control, the material comes first. There is much different material of products as we purchase at least 30 product categories per shipment. We need to confirm with suppliers for the material when we make orders, the best way is to make one sample before production, also known as a production sample. Once the production sample material is confirmed by customers, then suppliers just produce bulk cargo based on the confirmed production sample. After that, we will check the material specifically when we collect cargo from suppliers and run quality control. In this way, the material usually will not go wrong.

2. Size

According to our sourcing experiences on different products. Quality control in our Yiwu warehouse is the second step. We have a specific tool to measure different products when we collect cargo from our suppliers. This is to make sure that customers will not receive the wrong size products.

3. Design

The 3rd step is to check designs. A lot of our orders are customized, our customers have their own logos or designs on their products. This is known as OEM order, the suppliers just produce according to customers’ ideas and above confirmed production sample.

4. Color

Under normal circumstances, products’ designs have multiple colors, which is good for customers to sell. Therefore, customers usually will mix colors in each design. Our MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity) for product is from 1 carton to 100 cartons, some suppliers even provide more than 10 colors in one design, some provide over 20 colors. So the color option depends on products and suppliers. To some customers, the more the better. After we collect all cargo, we will open the cartons and check for quality control whether the colors for each design are correct or not.

5. Quantity

Counting quantity is the necessary part when we collect cargo and run quality control. We require all suppliers to give us a packing list for their products, includes how many pcs per carton, whether there is an inner box or not, carton size, weight, etc. So, we use those to do double-checking when collecting cargo in our warehouse in Yiwu. This is to make sure customers will receive quantity for what they pay.

6. Package

Delivering products in good shape is the last thing in the process of collecting cargo and quality control. The bad or deformed package might be caused by suppliers during transportation. So our job is to notify and confirm that all products and carton boxes need to be maintained in good shape. After all, some products are very easily broken. So we need to always keep that in mind.
