MenuWhat other ways can you ship a cargo from China to the US if the supplier does not have a DG license?
I have contacted 2 of the big LCL companies in China to have a cargo moved to the US. However, they could not do it as my supplier does not have a DG license permit (Dangerous Goods) in order to export. I was wondering are they other alternatives in exporting w/o the license.

I live in Shanghai, China. Give me a call to explain more, know few suppliers, and also operate a trading company here,
I do not know of any alternatives as your supplier needs this to be allowed to Export from the Chinese government. Also you may need to check hazmat requirements in the US as well to see if it is allowed in the country without a specific license. Why don't you ask your supplier what it would take for them to get the permit?

What is the best way to go about procuring ceramic cups in Asia? (By best I mean reliability and scalability.)
Many of the large established maunfactures attend trade shows, such as the Canton Import and Export Fair. The key is to look for manufactures that already supplies to established brands. Once the manufacture meets the QA standards of the large brands, their quality remains consistent regardless of the company they produce for. Most of the time the minimum order quantity they request are up for negotiation. Same for the sampling cost. Most manufactures are willing to wave the sampling cost if a production order is placed at a later time. Sourcing at the end of the day requires a lot of ground work. It takes time and effort to locate the right suppliers, visit and audit their facilities, and prices negotiate. However, this really saves money in the long term because you will have solid supply chains you can count on and trust. One way to approach this is to consolidate. Consolidate the number of suppliers, and make each sourcing trip count by finding multiple suppliers at once. Best of luck in finding the right suppliers for your products!ML

Criticism time! Does this idea stand a chance?
MOQs MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity) is not a new concept; it has a high success rate and various implementations the most common being regulatory agency restrictions, which have to do with import/exports, good sold etc. Additionally, no manufacturer can sell at cost (no markup) and remain in business. There are always “costs” with any goods/services sold. I hope my broad-stroke response has provided you some clarity. I am happy to assist with specifics via phone consultation.DP
