Finding Wholesale Suppliers at the Canton Fair
Quick answer: To find wholesale suppliers at the Canton Fair, choose the phase that matches your product, shortlist booths in advance, compare at least three suppliers per product, request samples, and confirm minimum order quantities and terms in writing.
What this guide covers
Start with the right phase
Products do not repeat across the three phases, so pick the phase that covers your category before you plan booths.
Compare before you commit
- Visit at least three suppliers for each product.
- Ask about minimum order quantities and price at higher volumes.
- Request samples to check quality.
- Note payment terms, lead time and packaging options.
Verify and start small
Confirm the supplier is a real manufacturer, place a trial order first, and keep records of every quote and specification.
