Importing from China is a hot topic these days. China is where consumer products are made cheap, fast and well. Tell me something I don’t know. Well, there are people who manage to succeed in importing from China, making some nice pocket money; improving the economics of their existing business; try their hands in entrepreneurship; or even build a successful venture from the ground up. These successful people, however, were a selected few. They had to go through lots of trials and tribulations to learn to navigate the supply chain in China. They had to build a personal network of trusted suppliers and agents. Importing from China was risky and mysterious.

That is about to change. The internet has spawn new means to import from China with unprecedented transparency and minimal risk. The answer – you can now import a single item off the internet directly from China. On lots of websites, you can find thousands of made-in-china products. OK, they are all directories of Chinese factories offering a phone number and an email address. They are glorified yellow pages. You will be calling international at weird hours in the morning talking to people commanding broken English who keep you wondering and suspicious the whole time. There is now a new site that is transaction-enabled. It offers thousands of items at factory wholesale prices. The prices are so low it almost makes you question its authenticity. The selection is so wide there is definitely something for everyone. Shipping charges are low, comparable to most internet shopping sites in the US. What’s really good is that they fulfill orders out of inventory, so you don’t have to wait for weeks for the factories to launch production of a new batch. The site is www.sourcingmap.com.
