Need a product sourcing agent in Yiwu for repackaging bulk products before shipping? Goldenshiny will make it easier and simpler.
Wholesale bulk cargo package
To many wholesale customers, Repackaging Bulk Products has never been an issue. Suppliers always have customized export standard carton boxes for customers’ bulk products. Wholesale customers would request suppliers to make packages and master carton boxes for a specific size, design, shape, etc.
However, this will be another case for some customers who import small quantities of each item. For small quantity items, suppliers send available packs by default, which probably will not fulfill customers’ requirements on the package. The reason is simple: suppliers will not customize the package if customers only purchase small quantities. Most small quantity is stock available. It’s like you buy groceries in the supermarket and ask the checkout counter to change packages; they have default packages, but it’s impossible to change the package design or size you want; you just take what’s available.
Repackaging Bulk Products
This has been an issue for many customers who purchase small quantities of items but need to ship all of them together in a standard and decent package. As a professional Product Sourcing Agent in Yiwu, we genuinely understand customers’ needs. It would be helpful for product safety during shipping, customs clearance, and good selling to customers after repackaging bulk products.
There are a few things we need to pay attention to repackaging bulk products.
Firstly. Cardboard quality. The carton box should be of good quality, and the cardboard of carton boxes must be strong enough to protect products from damage during shipping; high thickness cardboard is always the important thing we need to check first.
Secondly. Space Optimization. We need to use all the space with the same design or mix items (depending on customers’ requirements). We need to put similar soft items in one carton box, moreover, do more protection for fragile items when we replace carton boxes, adding foam or soft filling stuff to cover from top to bottom and right to left sides of products.
Lastly. Shipping mark. As customers have a lot of various products in one shipment, customers need to know and tell which carton box is which outcome in a short time when they receive it; after all, labor cost is not cheap in the countries where we export products, so we need also to put this into consideration, the shipping mark includes the item name, gross weight, carton box size, warning sticker if necessary.
After we finish repackaging bulk products process according to the customer’s requirements, we will take photos, videos, or video calls with customers to double confirm. We only ship after we get customers’ approval.
