DiFreight has been successfully supporting and advising Ukrainian entrepreneurs engaged in international trade for over three years. We provide them with a complete procurement cycle for goods from China. To ensure that DiFreight clients receive a higher quality and more efficient service, we have opened our own warehouse in China. Today we're discussing the services you can get there.
The main route for goods from factories, plants, and private sellers in China to Ukraine is by sea, although it can generally be considered multimodal. Our company picks up the goods from the supplier and produces packaging according to the cargo specification, taking into account the requirements and methods of logistics.
The components of the tariff depend on the parameters of your cargo and its type, all depending on the client's desire to optimize transportation costs, which is the result of interaction with Difreight. Each individual client request is strictly considered individually to minimize risks, financial, and time costs taking into account cargo nuances, as well as the most accurate calculation for the transportation of your cargo.
Shipping goods by full or consolidated containers from China to Ukraine is safe and economically advantageous. When considering the financial costs per unit of product for different types of transportation, container shipping will give you the greatest financial benefit and savings per unit of goods. We recommend container shipping as the best method for delivering goods from China to Ukraine.
The rapid development of Chinese industry and its readiness to flood the world's stores with consumer goods could not go unnoticed by enterprising individuals. As a result, entrepreneurs began actively purchasing various goods from Chinese manufacturers to sell them in their own countries and profit from the price difference.
For successful business development and to make sure that you offer your customers goods of the right quality, it is important to choose a reliable manufacturer, especially when it comes to cooperation with foreign partners. From Ukraine, it is difficult to check the reliability of a manufacturer in China, because it requires not only knowledge of the local market but also the ability to personally visit the production facilities. In this case, a production inspection in China will come in handy.
Doing business with China is fraught with many difficulties: language barriers, cultural differences, and the complexity of Chinese law. We offer a turnkey business with China service: we take care of everything.
China is a country that impresses with its variety of goods and accessibility to consumers. Popular marketplaces, such as Taobao, Tmall or 1688, offer profitable wholesale and retail purchases of various goods.
The 'Direct purchase from China' service by Difright allows customers to buy goods stress-free from popular Chinese online platforms, including Alibaba, Taobao, 1688, and others.
One issue our customers may encounter is needing an Alipay account to purchase from Chinese online platforms. However, Alipay accounts are only available for Chinese residents or individuals with a Chinese phone number and a Chinese Unipay bank card.
There are two types of on-site inspections: one is an inspection of suppliers, and the other is an inspection of goods. Also, the thoroughness of inspection can vary from less detailed to more detailed. Trained staff performs an on-site inspection during shipment based on your specific requirements and the level of thoroughness needed. Once the inspection is complete, you will receive a quality control mark on the bill of lading (B/L, or BOL), invoice, and packaging documents.
China is undoubtedly the world's leader in manufacturing, with numerous factories and production facilities.
If you want to purchase or find a product in China, the first step is finding a reliable supplier or marketplace. Many Chinese factories have websites in English and Chinese. However, there are a lot of internal Chinese platforms with appealing products and prices.
'Search for Goods and Suppliers in China' is a service for market monitoring and searching for any product based on the Customer's request and detailed instructions. Once the search is complete, the Customer receives a spreadsheet containing price offers, main product characteristics, and all the suppliers' terms and conditions. All suppliers' negotiations are also shared with the Customer for final consideration.
Shared container shipping, also known as Less-than-Container Load (LCL) shipping, is an affordable option for transporting cargo where you only pay for the volume required for your shipment rather than the whole container. This makes it more cost-effective compared to other types of shipping available.
Shipping within China is shipping from any factory to Shenzhen port. At the same time, entrepreneurs do not like and are even afraid to order the transportation of goods from remote warehouses for several reasons: they may have to pay more, it is even easier to lose the goods, who will track them. But really there is nothing to worry about. China is not an island nation like Japan. The operation of trains, planes, and ships that transport goods is well established within the country.
Purchasing goods in China has recently become an increasingly profitable solution for both business and personal needs. The market is wide, there are many offers, the volumes are impressive. But the procurement process in most cases is accompanied by a number of complications. Often, before coming to Difreight, customers try to place orders on their own and "stuff the cones". Today I will talk about common difficulties that our clients faced before starting cooperation.
Logistics in international trade plays a crucial role, especially when we are dealing with such a large country as China. The Chinese logistics system has its own peculiarities and challenges. Today I will tell you why your goods from China are delayed at the time of purchase, and most importantly, how to minimize these delays.
