Who Should Come To Yiwu?

#1 Have distributing channels.

#2 Own several shops for toys, gifts/crafts, stationary...

#3 Have one or two supermarkets for everything.

#4 Have several dollar stores, or one big shopping mall.



Then come to Yiwu. This is a place that will help you make good profit.You will find that 99% products selling at Yiwu market can be sold at your own store at 8+ times of their buying price.

Say, you buy one flush Barbie at 1.00 USD; you can sell it in your store for at least 8.00 USD. For some small things like hair clips, sewing kits, photo frames… the profit can be totally out of your imagination.

For half of the products you find in your nearby corner store (dollar store), Yiwu can exports it, at a price that can keep your mouth open for ten seconds.



These are all the good things about Yiwu. Good prices make sure you have enough profit; Rich variety helps you mix up a full container easily.

Things People Don't Like About Yiwu:

Let’s see the basic black hair bands. They are sold at 0.0003 USD / piece. You can have them packed in one pack of three and sold them at 1.00 USD or 2.00 USD at your store.

It’s a hundred-times-profit. But, wait… the minimum order is 14,400 pieces. Suppose each person in your neighborhood uses up 10 pieces bands each month, and then you have to have a population of 1,440.

Solution for this can be having some strong selling channels that can help you sell quickly and bulky for one product, or having several stores sell a large variety of everything.



2nd one - QUALITY. You pay junk prices for junks.

Although the quality improved in recently years, especially after the worldwide financial crisis, people still think it’s too risky to buy without excellent quality inspection.

I once ordered two packs of “red envelopes”, around 4,000 pieces. When my parcel arrived, I found none of the patterns were what I had selected previously. It’s bad enough. I had to use the designs they delivered. Too much hassle to go back and argue.

Solution for this problem can be having someone good to do inspection for you. And make sure that person is crystal clear about what you’re looking for. No misunderstanding.



This is all about who should/must come to Yiwu – wholesalers, shop owners, supermarket owners, and dollar store owners, and of course, anyone who is looking for new opportunities.
