Looking for a buying agent from China?



If you are looking for procuring products from china for business purpose all you need is a good  buying agent  who will make the process easier for you. So that you can purchase things from the best companies who are complied with the Chinese regulatory body and will give you that best price in the China market. But it is not so easy because finding a good agent is really difficult as the entire deal that you are going to make will happen via that agent and trust is the only factor that has to be there in the entire dealing. Getting a trustworthy agent is the most difficult part of the entire process.

The important things that everyone should keep in mind while looking for a buying agent in China
Trustworthy or not

The first and the most important thing is trust that one should keep in mind while doing business via agent in China. Any agent will not serve the purpose as everyone is not trustworthy and it has been seen that business may happen but reliability factor is absent in such situations. So, an agent should be trustworthy to start with. So before hiring anyone it is advisable that some background information related to the agent should be collected. If the information is inadequate then it is better to engage then in some trial assignment to understand how they operate and what kind of work ethics they maintain. If the deal went smooth then one can hire the agent for the actually assignment.

Contract is important

Some believe that once the trust is built everything will be fine. They believe that the verbal commitment from the buying agent is enough to have a smooth procurement from China. But this is not always true. A contract provides you a legal document which helps you to deal with any unforeseen problem related to the quality of the product or delay in delivery etc. 

It is essential to check that the agent is not getting commission from the suppliers. If they are getting anything from them then the supplier will never give you the best price. The Supplier will include the commission of the agent. The buying will never take you to the best suppliers and they will always try to close the deal with those with whom the agent has a good relation.

So, it is always advisable that before selecting the buying agent one should be thorough with the background of the agent and if possible collect information from the market about the quality of the service they provide.
