Frequently asked questions

YiwuHQ is a sourcing agent. We buy from Chinese factories and wholesale markets on your behalf: we find the supplier, negotiate the price, arrange samples and inspection, and ship the goods to your country. You deal with one team and receive one quote.

Open any product and send a quote request with your quantity and destination, or describe a product that is not listed. We confirm with the factory and reply on your private quote page with a firm unit price, lead time and shipping terms. Asking for a quote is free.

The starting price is the lowest typical unit price for that product. Your exact price depends on quantity, customization such as logo or packaging, and the shipping terms you choose, so it is confirmed in your quote. Larger quantities usually lower the unit price.

The minimum order quantity is the smallest order a factory accepts for a product. It is shown on every product page and varies by product, commonly from a few hundred to a few thousand units. If you need fewer, ask: we can often find stock items or a supplier with a lower minimum.
