Steps to Manufacture Your Product in China

Before diving into the adventure of creating a new product or brand, it’s essential to analyze the business idea to determine if there is a market niche, what the necessary investment is, how much time is needed, and ultimately, if the project is viable.

Prototyping

Prototyping helps correct the design, ensure it provides the intended service, confirm that users can use it properly, and prepare instruction or assembly manuals. Additionally, packaging and transportation to the point of sale should be studied.

Analyze the Investment

Creating your own brand in China is easy, but you must carefully calculate the necessary investment. Suppliers seek profitability, so they usually require a minimum order quantity (MOQ). Sometimes, if this quantity is not reached, they may ask for an additional amount to compensate.

Calculate the Time

Developing a product from scratch takes time. Before moving to production, molds need to be made, and samples requested. The factory will conduct initial tests following the specifications, but the final product may not meet expectations, necessitating modifications and re-submissions until the desired result is achieved.

Learn to Negotiate

Eastern culture is very different from ours, including in business. Negotiating conditions with a supplier who speaks a different language and has different customs can be a challenge. Furthermore, not all suppliers are equipped to develop a brand from scratch. Most are OEM manufacturers, meaning they customize mass-produced products. Effective negotiation requires clear ideas and an ally in finding and negotiating with the supplier.
